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.
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
Background/aim: It is known that various temperament and character dimensions, and parenting styles could be associated with problematic internet and smartphone use. This study aimed to examine the association between temperament, character, and parenting styles and problematic smartphone and internet use in nonclinical female teenagers. Materials and methods: 244 nonclinical female adolescent were included the study. Young's Internet Addiction Test Short Form, Smartphone Addiction Scale, Junior Temperament and Character Inventory and Parenting Style Scale were used for collecting data. Results: Problematic smartphone use was significantly negatively correlated with cooperativeness character type, strictness/supervision, and acceptance/involvement subscales of the parenting style scale. A significant correlation was found between problematic internet use and acceptance/involvement, strictness/supervision subscales of Parenting Style Scale. In ANOVA analysis, it was found that the authoritative parenting style was associated with less problematic use, and the neglectful, authoritarian, and indulgent parenting styles were associated with increased problematic use. A negative correlation was found between the cooperativeness character style and problematic smartphone use. Conclusion: According to our results, parenting style is more important for problematic internet and smartphone use among female adolescents than temperament and character.
