Factors associated with mental health disorders in undergraduate students: A meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Narra J, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Mental health disorders are a significant issue, yet there is currently no consistent data regarding the factors that may contribute to their occurrence. The aim of this study was to identify the factors that may influence the occurrence of mental health disorders in the undergraduate student population. This meta-analysis, registered in PROSPERO, was conducted as of September 5, 2024. The systematic searches were conducted on three databases (Scopus, Embase, and PubMed). Data on factors related to the occurrence of mental health disorders in undergraduate students were collected to calculate pooled point estimates using the Mantel-Haenszel test. Out of 6,837 articles, 16 articles were included in the analysis. Our findings revealed that female students had a higher chance of experiencing mental health disorders compared to male students (OR: 1.43; 95%CI: 1.14-1.80;
