Prevalence of dyslexia related to mental health problems and character strengths among primary school students in northwest China.
Article in Australian journal of psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: This study aimed to examine the prevalence of dyslexia, mental health problems, and character strengths among primary school students in northwest China. Method: Primary school students ( Results: The estimated prevalence of dyslexia ranged from 4.9% to 6.9% and was highly prevalent among boys. Students with dyslexia reported statistically higher mean scores for emotional symptoms, conduct behaviours, internalizing and externalising problems, as well as total difficulties. Conversely, they exhibited lower levels of prosocial behaviour, expressed lower self-esteem, and reported higher instances of being bullied. Additionally, the prevalences of depression and anxiety symptoms were 36.5% and 26.3%, respectively, among dyslexic students. Signature strengths among students with dyslexia included appreciation of beauty and excellence, love, hope, forgiveness, and judgement. Conclusions: These findings underscore dyslexia's impact on mental health and academic performance in China. Implementing character strength-focused interventions could enhance well-being and academic outcomes among dyslexic primary school students.
