Article in Mindfulness, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objectives: Mindfulness programs are increasingly popular on college campuses in the US, yet little is known about college students' perceptions and beliefs about mindfulness: its origins, how it is learned, its functions, and practitioners. Using methods from Cultural Consensus Theory (CCT), the present study examined whether a cultural consensus on mindfulness exists among this group and what the substantive content of that consensus might be. Methods: College-attending young adults aged 18-25 (Study 1, Results: Young adults converged on a cultural consensus about mindfulness, and the substantive content was replicated across both studies. Participants Conclusions: The beliefs about mindfulness identified suggest an American cultural consensus amongst young adults that views mindfulness as accessible, learnable, able to relieve suffering, more of interest to women and less to Conservatives, and incorporating both secular and spiritual origins and aims.
