Enhancing resilience in pre-clinical health science students in Thailand: the impact of sports activity and social support.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 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
Objective: Pre-clinical health science students face considerable academic pressure as they begin to encounter the academic demands and professional expectations characteristic of health science training. During this period, resilience may be particularly amenable to development. This study assessed emotional resilience and identified its associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted (April-May 2024) among 556 pre-clinical students in Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Nursing at a university in Thailand. Participants completed online surveys: Resilience Inventory, Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey, University of California Los Angeles Loneliness Scale, and Multi-Dimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. Data were analyzed using multivariable linear regression to identify predictors of resilience levels. Results report standardized coefficients (β) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results: Participants' mean age was 20.07 years (SD = 1.39); 62.1% were female. Resilience was low (24.9%), moderate (54.9%), and high (20.2%). Resilience was positively associated with sports participation (β = 1.18, 95% CI: 0.32, 2.04), family support (β = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.13, 0.92), and friend support (β = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.11, 0.99), but negatively associated with emotional exhaustion (β = -0.20, 95% CI: -0.28, -0.11). Conclusions: Emotional resilience was independently associated with sports participation, social support, and lower emotional exhaustion. Physical activity and social support interventions may strengthen resilience.
