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
Introduction: This study examines the intricate relationship between HEXACO personality dimensions, specifically honesty-humility (H-H), emotional intelligence, stress, and mental health, within the context of music education in China. Methods: Utilizing the PROCESS Procedure for SPSS, developed by Andrew F. Hayes, we analyzed data from a sample of 746 music students aged 18-35 years, enrolled in undergraduate to graduate-level programs. The mediational model (Model 15) identified trait emotional intelligence as the mediator (M), with stress as the independent variable (X) and mental health as the dependent variable (Y), while considering H-H as a moderating variable (W). Results: Our findings demonstrate that trait emotional intelligence significantly mediates the effect of stress on mental health, with the H-H dimension moderating this mediation, thereby enhancing the protective effect of emotional intelligence against stress-induced negative mental health outcomes. Discussion: These results suggest practical applications for music education, indicating that integrating emotional intelligence training into curricula could be beneficial for improving stress management and mental health among students. Furthermore, recognizing H-H as a moderating factor highlights the importance of developing tailored support strategies to address the unique pressures faced by music students, thereby fostering a more supportive educational environment that is conducive to both academic achievement and personal growth.
