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: A proactive personality, characterized by an individual's tendency to take initiative and actively shape their environment, has been increasingly recognized as a critical factor in academic success. Drawing on Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory and proactive motivation frameworks, this study investigates the relationship between proactive personality and academic achievement, focusing on the mediating role of academic self-efficacy and the moderating role of perceived social support. Method: Data on proactive personality, academic self-efficacy, perceived social support, and academic achievement were gathered through WJX, yielding a total of 1,153 completed questionnaires. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS and Mplus software, including correlation analysis, principal component analysis, Results: Results indicate that proactive personality positively predicts academic achievement, with academic self-efficacy serving as a significant mediator. Furthermore, perceived social support moderates this relationship, enhancing the positive effects of proactive personality on academic achievement through strengthened self-efficacy. Discussion: The study highlight the importance of fostering proactive behaviors and providing robust social support systems in educational settings to promote students' academic success.
