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
Purpose: The mental health of primary school students in China has garnered significant attention. Various factors can influence the mental health of primary school students, with family-related factors being particularly important. This study aims to explore the relationship between parental growth mindset and primary school students' mental health problems, as well as the longitudinal mediating mechanisms of parenting self-efficacy and students' self-control in this relationship. By providing theoretical support and practical guidance, this study aims to improve the mental health of primary school students. Methods: This study utilized a three-wave longitudinal design spanning 1 year, recruiting students and parents from two primary schools in Beijing. Parental growth mindset (T1) and parenting self-efficacy (T2) were assessed via parent self-report using Parental Growth Mindset Scale and Parenting Self-Efficacy Scale. Students' self-control (T2) and mental health problems (T3) were assessed via student self-report using the Brief Self-Control Scale and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Data were collected in three waves, resulting in 280 valid matched questionnaires. Results: Parental growth mindset significantly negatively predicted mental health problems in primary school students (β = -0.25, SE = 0.02, Conclusion: Parenting self-efficacy and students' self-control play a chain mediating role between parental growth mindset and students' mental health problems in primary school students. This conclusion provides suggestions for improving mental health in primary school students.
