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.

Nomophobia, or the fear of not being able to use a smartphone and/or the services, has gained increasing attention due to its growing prevalence. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of nomophobia and of potential variables associated with the phenomenon.

Finally, it analyzed the associations between nomophobia (overall and second-order factors) and psychological variables (self-esteem, loneliness, life satisfaction, and phubbing behavior), internet use, and sociodemographic characteristics. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 306 participants (68.6% women), aged between 18 and 79 years (
