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 evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary collaborative intervention in reducing anxiety and depression among left-behind children and to examine the mediating role of social support. Methods: This study conducted a randomized controlled trial in rural primary schools in Lianyungang City, China, involving 120 left-behind children (grades 4-6), randomly assigned to an intervention group and a control group (1:1). The control group received standard mental health education; the intervention group received a 12-week intervention program provided by a multidisciplinary team of professionals from developmental and educational psychology, applied psychology, social work, and clinical medicine. This program integrated psychological counseling, behavioral modification, family support, and community integration. Intervention effects were assessed using the SCARED, CDI, and PSSS scales at baseline, post-intervention, and at a 3-month follow-up. Data were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA and structural equation modeling. Results: At baseline, the groups were comparable ( Conclusion: The multidisciplinary model effectively alleviates anxiety and depression in left-behind children primarily by strengthening multidimensional social support, demonstrating significant potential for large-scale implementation in public mental health services.
