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
Object: To examine the relationship between sensory characteristics and emotional/behavioral problems in preschool children, and to explore the moderating role of maternal parenting stress. Method: From April to December 2024, a total of 321 healthy children and their primary caregivers from six kindergartens in Nantong City were recruited as study participants. The Short Sensory Profile, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, and Parenting Stress Index-Short Form were used to assess children's sensory characteristics, emotional and behavioral problems, and maternal parenting stress. Result: The average total score of the SSP among the 321 preschool children was 57.09 ± 16.59, with an abnormality rate of 5.6%. Among the domains of the SDQ, peer relationship problems had the highest rate of abnormalities (31.2%), followed by hyperactivity/inattention (7.79%), emotional symptoms (5.30%), total difficulties (4.36%), conduct problems (3.74%), and prosocial behavior (3.43%). The total SSP score was correlated with all dimensions of the SDQ ( Conclusion: There was a significant association between sensory characteristics and emotional/behavioral problems in preschool children. Maternal parenting stress moderated this relationship-higher levels of parenting stress amplified the impact of children's sensory characteristics on emotional and behavioral issues. Future efforts should place greater emphasis on the development of sensory characteristics in preschool children and address family-related parenting stress, in order to effectively reduce the occurrence of emotional and behavioral problems in early childhood.
