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

The COVID-19 pandemic increased mental health issues and heavily affected the academic performance of college students. The study aimed to assess the association of psychological health and behavioral factors with academic performance among undergraduate students during the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Data was collected online using Qualtrics in person in July 2021. Participants were selected randomly. World Health Organization-5, Perceived Stress Scale 4, The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7, and Patient Health Questionnaire scales for well-being, stress, sleep quality, anxiety, and depression were used, respectively.
