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
Emerging evidence suggests that emotion malleability beliefs are associated with adolescents' emotion regulation and social interactions. However, it is unclear how this association is impacted by family interaction, which plays a crucial role in adolescent emotional development. The present study used Actor-Partner Interdependence Mediation Models (APIMeMs) to examine how parents' and adolescents' emotion malleability beliefs are linked to their own and each other's emotion regulation (cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression) in parent-adolescent dyads and how the interdependence is related to adolescents' social anxiety symptoms. Data were collected from 493 parent-adolescent dyads in China (Mage = 14.82 years, SD = 0.45; 50.71% girls; 80.32% mothers). Results showed that both parents' and adolescents' emotion malleability beliefs were associated with their own and each other's use of cognitive reappraisal. For expressive suppression, only actor effects were significant, such that parents' and adolescents' emotion malleability beliefs were related to their own use of expressive suppression. Moreover, adolescents' emotion malleability beliefs predicated their social anxiety symptoms both directly and indirectly through their own cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression. Parents' emotion malleability beliefs were indirectly associated with reduced adolescent social anxiety symptoms via adolescents' increased cognitive reappraisal. These findings, based on the context of family interaction, suggest that cognitive reappraisal, more than expressive suppression, may reflect a dyadic family process through which emotion malleability beliefs are associated with adolescent social anxiety symptoms.
