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

Grounded in a culturally and psychologically informed perspective on educational equity, this study examines how teachers' cultural congruence is associated with ethnic minority university students' adaptation to campus life and explores the psychological processes underlying this relationship. Drawing on attachment theory, social comparison theory, and ethnic socialization theory, we developed a structural equation model in which students' sense of belonging was specified as the central psychological mediator, while teachers' and students' ethnic identities were examined as contextual moderators. Using survey data from 180 undergraduates enrolled in three ethnic and normal universities in western China, structural equation modeling indicated that perceived teacher cultural congruence was strongly and positively associated with students' school adaptation (total effect
