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

Objective: To explore the effect of physical exercise intervention on mild-to-moderate depression in college students, and to provide empirical evidence for informing treatment. Methods: A total of 108 college students with mild-to-moderate depression receiving care at the outpatient department and inpatient department of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Xinxiang Medical University between January 2022 and March 2024 were enrolled. The participants were divided into a control group ( Results: Comparison of the primary outcome indicator revealed that, after treatment, the efficacy grading in the physical exercise group was better than that in the control group ( Conclusion: Physical exercise can regulate the function of the HPA axis of college students with mild-to-moderate depression, alleviate their depressive symptoms, promote the recovery of cognitive function, and improve the sleep quality and quality of life of patients.
