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

Background: Mental health challenges among adolescents are a growing global concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries such as Bangladesh, where school-going adolescents often face demanding psychological and academic stressors. These stressors may contribute to the development of mental health issues, including stress, anxiety, and depression. Aims: In this context, the present study sought to investigate the prevalence of these mental health problems and examine the impact of gender and academic grade levels among Bangladeshi school students. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from July 2024 to March 2025 with a random sample of 400 students from eight government schools in the Gopalganj district. The Bangla version of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was used to collect responses from participants. Results: Results showed a high prevalence with students who experienced stress being 75% ( Conclusion: The findings underscore the importance of gender-sensitive and grade-specific mental health intervention needs among Bangladeshi school students.
