1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: Chinese version of the Physical Self-Description Questionnaire-Short (PSDQ-S) was revised, and its reliability, validity, and gender invariance were tested among Chinese middle school students. Methods: A convenience sampling method was used to select 1,632 middle school students in grades 7-12 (12-18 years old) in Shanghai for the PSDQ-S questionnaire survey, and SPSS 24.0 and Mplus 8.3 software were used for data analysis. Results: Eight factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis with a cumulative variance explanation rate was 79.45%. Confirmatory factor analysis supports the hypothesis of an 8-factor model (χ Conclusion: The revised Chinese version of the PSDQ-S has good validity, reliability, and gender equivalence, encompassing eight sub-dimensions that can assess the independent yet interrelated latent constructs within the physical self-concept of Chinese middle school students.
