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: Assessing empathy in adolescents is essential for developing effective school bullying prevention programs. However, no validated instrument for evaluating empathy in Indonesian adolescents was previously available. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the EmQue-CA and its subscales, providing a tool for assessing empathy in adolescents in Indonesia. Methods: Psychometric testing was conducted in January and February 2024 following the translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the EmQue-CA into Indonesian. A total of 140 junior high school students aged 13 to 15 were selected through multistage sampling. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was performed to determine the factor structure, while reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and test-retest reliability. Results: EFA supported a three-factor structure-affective empathy (3 items), cognitive empathy (3 items), and intention to comfort (4 items)-consisting of 10 items in total, which accounted for 65.97% of the variance. The instrument showed strong internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.96) and excellent test-retest reliability ( Conclusion: The 10-item Indonesian version of the EmQue-CA is a valid and reliable tool for assessing empathy in adolescents. It can be used by school nurses, healthcare professionals, and educators to support the development of empathy-based interventions in school settings.
