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

This paper reports on data from two trials about stakeholders' attitudes to school-based mental health screening. Study 1 reports data from 6228 students from grades 4 to 12 while Study 2 reports data from 267 caregivers and 34 educators from a larger trial. All three groups of stakeholders reported broadly positive attitudes toward school-based screening. Few students reported distress from questions and most agreed that schools should screen. Caregivers and educators reported positive attitudes toward the use and implementation of screening and reported few concerns about harms. Educators who conducted screening reported mostly positive experiences, although they noted high resource burden and false positives and negatives.
