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

Amid the prevailing trend of "pan-entertainment" in cyberspace, adults increasingly interpret children's lives through utilitarian, adult-centric, and entertainment-focused perspectives, leading to the alienation of children's online images. This study examines child influencer accounts on Douyin-typically managed by parents-and conducts content and discourse analysis on them. Drawing on critical theories by Douglas Kellner, we employed Scrapy and NVivo to analyze 30 popular children's videos and 15,000 user comments posted beneath them. The analysis identifies five key characteristics in the construction of such images: spectacular visual mechanisms, younger-age production trends, covert commercial penetration, homogenized spectacle types, and adult-centric implicit influence. The study underscores the urgency of strengthening protective mechanisms to counteract platform capitalism's intrusion into childhood and to uphold children's digital privacy and agency.
