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
Introduction: This study aims to examine the association of sports participation with young adults' subjective well-being and to explore its underlying pathways by analyzing the mediating and chain mediating effects of perceived social support and psychological resilience between the two variables. Methods: Using data from the 2021 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS), statistical analyses including variance analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and mediation analysis were conducted using SPSS 27.0 and its Process V4.3 component. Results: The results indicate that sports participation is positively associated with subjective well-being among young adults. Perceived social support and psychological resilience independently mediate this relationship, while also forming a significant chain mediation pathway. Among these pathways, perceived social support exerts the most significant mediating effect. Conclusion: These findings reveal the importance of both social and psychological resources in explaining how sports participation is associated with subjective well-being, provide theoretical foundations and practical insights for further exploring key factors influencing subjective well-being, and effectively promote the physical and mental health development of young adults.
