1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the mediating role of loneliness in the effect of women's social media addiction on aesthetic procedure behavior.

methodsThe study was carried out with a total of 1,166 women. The data were evaluated by correlation and SPSS PROCESS macro 4 regression analysis with the Introductory Information Form, Social Media Addiction Scale-Adult Form, Social Media and Changing Perception of Aesthetic Procedures in Society Scale, and Ruls-6 Loneliness Scale.

resultsWhen the mediating role of loneliness was examined in the effect of social media addiction on having aesthetic procedures, it was determined that both social media addiction (β=0.481) and loneliness (β=0.075) significantly positively affected the perception of having social media aesthetic procedures. A positive relationship was determined between Social Media Addiction Scale-Adult Form, Social Media and Changing Perception of Aesthetic Procedures in Society Scale total score, sub-factor mean scores, and Ruls-6 Loneliness total scores (p<0.001).

conclusionIt was found that loneliness had a low-level effect on the effect of social media addiction on aesthetic behavior.
