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
The present study examined the indirect relationship between sexual orientation status and suicidality through perceived parental, social, and internalized pressure to get married, as well as perceived burdensomeness and thwarted belongingness. An online sample of 1420 Chinese unmarried adults (54.4% female, 41.8% male, and 3.9% non-binary; age: M = 25.4 years, SD = 4.8) completed self-report measures. The results showed that sexual minority individuals reported higher levels of perceived parental pressure to get married, social pressure to get married, perceived burdensomeness, thwarted belongingness, and suicidality, and lower levels of internalized parental pressure to get married compared to their heterosexual counterparts. Path analyses suggested that being a sexual minority was associated with increased suicidality through perceived burdensomeness and thwarted belongingness, as well as through social pressure to get married and then thwarted belongingness. Furthermore, being a sexual minority was indirectly associated with increased suicidality through internalized pressure to get married. These findings contribute to our understanding of how sexual orientation status contributes to suicidality among Chinese unmarried adults.
