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
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between athletes' Self-esteem(SE) and The Perceived Available Support in Sports Questionnaire(PASS-Q), with a particular focus on the mediating role of Decentering and the moderating effect of training years. Methods: A total of 354 athletes (198 males and 156 females) from various sports were surveyed using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, The Decentering Scale for Sport, and The Perceived Available Support in Sports Questionnaire. Correlation analysis, regression analysis, and PROCESS macro modeling were employed to examine the hypothesized relationships. Results: (1) Athletes' SE is significantly positively correlated with Decentering and PASS; (2) Decentering played a mediating role in the relationship between SE and PASS; (3) Training years moderated the direct effect of SE on PASS, such that the effect was stronger among athletes with longer training years. Conclusion: SE not only directly promotes athletes' PASS but also indirectly enhances it through Decentering. Furthermore, training years serve as a boundary condition for this relationship. These findings provide theoretical insights and practical implications for improving athletes' psychological resilience and social adaptation.
