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
Introduction: This study investigates the mediating role of psychological resilience in the relationship between self-efficacy and life satisfaction among student athletes. Self-efficacy and psychological resilience are considered key psychological resources that can enhance overall well-being and life satisfaction, particularly in the context of sports. Methods: The research was conducted using a quantitative design. The sample consisted of 481 student athletes (223 male, 46.4%; 258 female, 53.6%) studying at faculties of sport sciences in various universities across Turkey. Data were collected through the General Self-Efficacy Scale, the Brief Resilience Scale, and the Life Satisfaction Scale. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 27.0 and the PROCESS Macro (Model 4). Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine relationships between variables, followed by mediation analyses based on hierarchical regression and bootstrap methods. Results: Findings indicated that self-efficacy significantly and positively predicted psychological resilience ( Discussion: These results highlight the importance of self-efficacy and psychological resilience as fundamental factors that promote life satisfaction among university student athletes. The study suggests that sports environments can enhance life satisfaction by strengthening both physical and psychological resources. Based on these findings, developing intervention programs aimed at improving self-efficacy and psychological resilience may significantly contribute to the well-being and satisfaction of student athletes.
