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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the mediating role of self-consciousness between the quality of life and family functioning in girls with precocious puberty.

methodsA convenience sampling method was employed to select 314 female children aged 8-12 years with precocious puberty who were receiving outpatient treatment at a tertiary hospital in Sichuan Province, China, between March 2022 and March 2023 for a questionnaire survey; The general data survey form, the generic core scale of children's quality of life, the Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale, and the Family Function Assessment Scale were used as research tools; Pearson was used for correlation analysis, and AMOS 26.0 was applied to construct the mediating effect model and test between family functioning and quality of life of precocious puberty girls' self-awareness.

resultsFamily function (β = 0.270, P < 0.001) and self-awareness (β = 0.480, P < 0.001) had a positive predictive effect on the quality of life of precocious puberty girls, and self-awareness had a partially mediating effect between the quality of life of precocious puberty girls and their family function (β = 0.293, P < 0.001), and the mediating effect accounted for 52.04% of the total effect.

conclusionImproving family functioning and self-awareness in girls with precocious puberty is closely related to improving their quality of life. Medical professionals should consider multidisciplinary association to help precocious puberty girls create a favorable family atmosphere and promote the girls to establish a positive sense of self in order to improve their quality of life.
