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
introductionBereaved individuals experiencing losses tend to experience better psychological well-being if they experience higher levels of cognitive integration. This study aims to investigate the everyday life context where this process could take place, given that bereaved individuals also experience disruptions to fulfilling daily activities.
methodsAmong a nationally representative sample of 1588 bereaved Turkish people 7 months after the 2023 Turkey-Syria Earthquake (September-October 2023), we conducted moderated mediation analyses to investigate whether (1) cognitive integration mediated the links between the levels of earthquake exposure and psychiatric (grief, PTSD, anxiety, depressive) symptoms, and (2) disruptions to fulfilling daily activities moderated the mediation.
resultsThe two components of integration, namely comprehensibility and footing in the world, fully mediated the positive links between earthquake exposure and all four psychiatric symptoms (βs = .02-.03; βs = .06-.08). Direct and indirect paths were stronger under higher levels of disruptions to fulfilling daily activities: the indirect exposure-comprehensibility-symptoms were only significant under high (βs = .03-.04, 95% CI [.01-.02, .05-.06]) and medium (βs = .02-.03, 95% CI [.01-.02, .03-.04]) levels, and the direct exposure-grief links were only significant under high levels of disruptions (β = .09, 95% CI [.03, .16]).
conclusionsThe current findings were in line with classic psychological theories on coping with stress, trauma, and loss and highlighted the importance of considering the behavioural context for engagement in fulfilling daily activities in the aftermath of natural disasters among bereaved individuals.
