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

Mental health problems are a major global health concern today. Psychological well-being, such as mental health, can be improved through nature connectedness. Nature connectedness is a co-benefit of planetary health. However, access to nature, along with sufficient exposure to it, which promotes nature connectedness, is a challenge for urban inhabitants. Therefore, this study aims to identify the needs required to connect with urban nature. Between June and August 2021, 152 female university students from Southern Germany participated in a mixed methods concept mapping study. Urban nature connectedness was rated as relatively low. Overall, nine different needs related to urban nature connectedness were identified. In line with previous research, we categorized these needs into three domains (situational contexts:
