Psychosocial Support Programs for the Mental Well-Being of High School Learners From Low- to Middle-Income Countries: Protocol for a Scoping Review.
Article in JMIR research protocols, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The World Health Organization reported in 2020 that approximately 50% of all mental health disorders in adolescents manifest before the age of 14 years. However, the literature on mental well-being and programs designed and implemented by nurses for adolescents in low- to middle-income countries (LMICs) is limited. This scoping review explores the development and implementation of psychosocial support programs targeting high school learners in LMICs. Objective: This prospective scoping review will examine the psychosocial support programs that exist and how they have been implemented for high school learners from LMICs. Methods: Using the Joanna Briggs Institute scoping review framework, we will identify primary research articles through systematic searches of the ERIC, MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and PsycInfo databases. Gray literature will also be sourced from Google Scholar. Two independent reviewers will apply the predetermined inclusion criteria to select studies. Data will be charted, analyzed narratively, and presented in tables and figures. Results: This review will analyze the psychosocial support programs for high school learners in LMIC, identifying gaps in the literature and highlighting areas for further investigation, thereby aiding in creating or adjusting such programs. This study is not funded, and data collection was completed in May 2025. Data analysis is currently in progress, and the results are expected to be finalized and submitted for publication in February 2026. Conclusions: This scoping review will synthesize evidence on psychosocial support programs in LMICs and guide the development of targeted interventions to address the mental health needs of high school learners.
