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
introductionMental health issues among young people are increasingly concerning and affect nursing students. The academic environment is recognised as a source of stress, compounded by the demands of clinical settings during practical training. During clinical placements, students face emotionally challenging situations that may compromise their mental health and academic performance. It is the responsibility of nurse educators to implement strategies that help students develop the necessary skills for managing stress and anxiety, as well as effective coping and communication. A psychoeducational programme designed for this purpose is presented.
aimTo explore the experiences of nursing students in participating in a psychoeducational program and its potential influence on the promotion of their mental health.
methodA qualitative phenomenological study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with 11 nursing students who completed the psychoeducational programme. Data were analysed through thematic coding and phenomenological reduction. DISCUSSION: Key emerging superordinate themes included: My safe space: the group as support and help network; Seeing things differently: reflection and change; Confidence, safety, and self-esteem; Improvement in interpersonal relationships. The psychoeducational programme provided spaces for reflection and emotional support, contributing to a healthier clinical experience. The findings are consistent with previous studies highlighting the importance of early mental health interventions for students.
conclusionImplications for practice. Integrating psychoeducational programmes into clinical training may enhance emotional wellbeing and promote mental health among students.
