Gender differences in digital literacy: a systematic and meta-analytic review across developmental stages and socio-cultural contexts.

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
Gender differences in digital literacy persist across educational stages and cultural sites, yet findings remain inconsistent. This systematic and meta-analytic review synthesizes evidence from 43 studies conducted in 31 regions between 2005 and 2023, examining gender disparities in DL performance and growth from Grade 3 to Grade 12. The cross-sectional meta-analysis, based on 67 effect sizes, revealed a consistant female advantage ( Systematic review registration: https://osf.io/9yax4/overview.
