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
Importance: Accurately assessing anger in Chinese adolescents is crucial. Uncontrolled anger among adolescents can manifest in externalizing and internalizing problems. However, there are limited assessments specifically designed to measure anger in Chinese adolescents. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Children's Inventory of Anger (ChIA-C). Methods: We enrolled 1790 adolescents aged 11-18 years from five middle schools (mean age of 14.56 ± 1.71 years, 57.9% female). Of these, 901 participants (mean age of 13.95 ± 1.66 years, 59.2% female) completed a retest survey after 9 months. Psychometric assessments comprised factor structure analysis, reliability testing, validity examination, and measurement invariance analysis. Furthermore, we recruited 50 pairs of depressed adolescents and healthy controls to evaluate the clinical sensitivity of the ChIA-C. Results: Factor analysis confirmed a robust four-factor structure with favorable fit indices ( Interpretation: The ChIA-C exhibits robust psychometric properties, establishing its reliability and validity as a tool for assessing anger in Chinese adolescents.
