1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Limited research has examined digital media use (DMU) in dual language learners (DLLs). This study examined the daily usage time, content, and language of DMU in a longitudinal sample of 120 Chinese-English DLLs (Time 1 [T1] age range = 4.33-7.33 years, Time 2 [T2] age range = 6.01-9.44 years, 42% girls) from low-income families. Children's heritage (HL) and English (EL) oral language proficiencies at T1 (collected August 2020-April 2023) were measured by language tests. At T2 (collected June 2022-December 2024), parents reported DLLs' device ownership and daily DMU time by content (entertainment videos, education, social, gaming) and primary DMU language (HL or EL). The primary aim was to examine the concurrent links between socioecological factors and DLLs' DMU. In partial support of our hypothesis, socioeconomic status was negatively associated with gaming time (β = -.35,
