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

Based on the cumulative risk model and cognitive appraisal theory, this study examined the complex relationships between economic pressure, emotional neglect, and anxiety among left-behind children (LBC), focusing on the mediating role of perceived discrimination and nonlinear risk patterns. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 618 LBC (aged 11-16 years) using standardized scales. Polynomial regression combined with Response Surface Analysis (RSA) was utilized to analyze congruence and incongruence effects. The results revealed that under congruent conditions, the association of economic pressure and emotional neglect with anxiety showed a marginally significant nonlinear accelerating trend, whereas their prediction of perceived discrimination followed a linear trend. Under incongruent conditions, emotional neglect demonstrated a stronger independent predictive effect on anxiety compared to economic pressure. Furthermore, perceived discrimination partially mediated the relationships between these risk factors and anxiety. These findings validate the cumulative risk model within the LBC context, demonstrating that risk factors operate in complex, non-additive ways. This highlights the necessity for differentiated interventions and suggests that reshaping LBC's subjective cognitive appraisals is key to reducing anxiety.
