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

This study assesses the influence of social support, self-esteem, depression, and education on psychological resilience among men who have sex with men (MSM) to inform policy-making. Data were collected from 1,070 MSM via an online survey in Zhejiang and the other 17 provinces, China, covering demographics, HIV-status and psychological factors. Psychological resilience and its influencing factors were analyzed using the Chi-square Automatic Interaction Detector (CHAID) decision tree and multivariable ordinal logistic regression. Among respondents, depression prevalence was 28.9%, HIV prevalence was 3.4%, low social support was 12.9%, and low self-esteem was 34.5%. Analysis identified depression, social support, self-esteem, and education as key factors influencing psychological resilience. Depression, low social support, low self-esteem, and education were significantly associated with psychological resilience in the study sample population of MSM. Targeted interventions addressing these factors are essential to improve mental health and reduce HIV risk.
