Article in BMC psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The analysis of the relationship between cyberbullying and cybervictimization and the study of psychological factors is necessary to prevent its occurrence and effects, as evidenced by the increase in cases of cyberbullying and cybervictimization among university students and the lack of studies on the topic. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between cyberbullying taking into account the different roles (cyberbullies, cybervictims and victimized cyberbullies) and the dimensions of emotional intelligence (attention, clarity and repair) according to gender in university students. A total of 1368 Spanish university students aged 18-49 (M = 21.34; SD = 4.45) completed a battery of questionnaires with the aim of assessing cyberbullying, cybervictimization and emotional intelligence. Men scored significantly higher on cyberbullying and cybervictimization. Women scored significantly higher on the attention dimension of emotional intelligence, but men scored significantly higher on the clarity and repair dimensions. In men, there is a higher probability of being a cyberbully, cybervictim and victimized cyberbully as the score on emotional attention increases and decreases as the score on the emotional repair dimension increases. For women, the results indicate a greater likelihood of being a cybervictim as the score on the emotional intelligence attention dimension increases. These results suggest the importance of promoting the proper understanding and emotional management of students in the university context to prevent cybervictimization and cyberbullying, taking into account the gender perspective. The findings underscore the importance of understanding the specific dimensions of emotional intelligence in men and women related to cyberbullying in university, as recognizing these differences can guide the design of specific prevention strategies aimed at reducing the risk of repeating cycles of violence in the online context.
