The impact of digital stress on suicide ideation among medical postgraduates: the chain mediating role of emotion regulation and meaning in life.
Article in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Suicide is a serious social problem. This study aimed to explore the mediating effects of emotion regulation and sense of meaning in life on stress perception and suicidal ideation of medical graduate students. A survey was conducted among 546 medical postgraduates using the digital stress scale, the emotion regulation scale, the sense of meaning in life scale and the suicidal ideation scale. The results showed that: (1) digital stress was significantly positively correlated with emotion regulation, sense of meaning in life and suicidal ideation; (2) The mediating effect of sense of meaning in life between digital stress and suicidal ideation is significant; (3) Emotion regulation and sense of meaning in life have chain mediating effects between digital stress and suicidal ideation in medical graduate students. This study proposed Implications for the underlying mechanisms by which digital stress affects suicidal ideation.
