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
Social-emotional distress is related to greater mental health challenges and reduced well-being. However, factors that mitigate its impact on mental health and well-being outcomes remain relatively understudied. This study aimed to examine the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between social-emotional distress, psychological adjustment problems, and life satisfaction among undergraduate students. For the first time, the study also validated the psychometric properties of the five-item version of the Social Emotional Distress Survey-Secondary-Brief (SEDS-S-Brief) in Turkish. The sample consisted of 545 Turkish undergraduate students (77.43% female) aged 18 to 22 years (M = 20.32, SD = 1.16), who completed the SEDS-S-Brief, Brief Resilience Scale, Brief Psychological Adjustment Scale-6, and Satisfaction with Life Scale. Confirmatory factor analysis supported a one-factor structure for the SEDS-S-Brief, with good internal consistency reliability. The mediation model revealed that social-emotional distress significantly predicted resilience. Also, social-emotional distress and resilience significantly predicted psychological adjustment problems and life satisfaction. Furthermore, resilience mediated the relationships between social-emotional distress, psychological adjustment problems, and life satisfaction. These findings enhance our understanding of the critical role of resilience in buffering the negative effects of social-emotional distress on mental health and well-being. The results have practical implications for developing interventions aimed at reducing the impact of social-emotional distress on the mental health and well-being of young adults by fostering resilience.
