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: This study applies the Dual-Factor Model of Mental Health to examine the effects of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) among college students, addressing a critical gap in understanding how mindfulness interventions simultaneously promote positive mental health and reduce psychological distress. Sleep quality was investigated as a potential mediating mechanism, and the scalability of MBSR as a campus-wide intervention was explored in the post-pandemic context, where student mental health concerns have risen sharply. Method: A sequential quantitative design was employed, combining cross-sectional analysis ( Result: Cross-sectional analyses revealed that mindfulness was positively associated with positive mental health (
