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

Uncertainty and inconsistency in career goals can weaken students' psychosocial adjustment. While the existing literature reports a link between this situation and loneliness and alienation from university, evidence on how these connections develop, particularly among sports science students, is limited. This study examined the mediating role of career concerns in the relationship between career goal inconsistency, loneliness, and university alienation. The study included 631 students from the sports science faculty in Türkiye. Validated self-report scales were used to measure the variables. The mediation analysis was carried out through the JASP 0.16.4 statistical program using structural equation modelling and bootstrap procedures. The tested model was confirmed. Career goal inconsistency positively associated with career concerns (
