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: Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between perceived social support and mental health outcomes among high school students across public and private schools in Tehran. Specifically, it assessed how varying levels of social support influenced emotional well-being, focusing on symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed, utilizing a stratified random sample of 300 students (150 from public schools and 150 from private schools), aged 14-18 years, in Tehran, Iran. Participants completed the Social Support Questionnaire, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS, incorporating Pearson correlation and ANOVA tests, with significance set at Results: Findings revealed a significant inverse relationship between social support and psychological distress. Students who reported greater levels of social support experienced lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Notably, private school students demonstrated higher perceived social support and more favorable mental health profiles compared to their public school peers. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) results indicated that public school students exhibited significantly elevated scores in psychological difficulties and distress. Conclusion: Social support emerges as a crucial protective factor against adverse mental health outcomes in adolescents. The heightened psychological distress observed among public school students underscores the necessity for context-specific interventions aimed at strengthening social support systems within these educational settings.
