Article in Child and adolescent psychiatry and mental health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe relationship between the parent-child relationship and adolescent depression is much discussed, but still not fully understood. Based on ecological systems theory, this study examined the potential mediating role of psychological resilience and the moderating role of school climate between the association of parent-child relationship and adolescent depression.
methodsThis study employed a three-wave longitudinal design with six months between each time point, involving 549 elementary and middle school students in southeastern China (50.82% males; mean age at Time 1 = 11.43). Measurements included the parent-child relationship (T1), psychological resilience (T2), school climate (T3), depression (T1 and T3), and demographic information.
resultsThe moderated mediation model demonstrated that after controlling for baseline adolescent depression (T1), the parent-child relationship (T1) was longitudinally and negatively associated with adolescent depression (T3) through the mediating effect of psychological resilience (T2). Additionally, the analysis revealed that a positive school climate moderated this mediation by mitigating the adverse impact of low psychological resilience on adolescent depression, thus reducing the indirect effect of the parent-child relationship on adolescent depression.
conclusionsOur findings offer a nuanced understanding of the underlying mechanisms linking parent-child relationship to adolescent depression among Chinese adolescents. Theoretical contributions and practical applications of these findings are further elaborated.
