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

INTRODUCTION AND

aimAdolescence is a vulnerable period marked by significant stress, with parental awareness potentially playing a crucial role in shaping adolescents' ability to manage stress. This study aimed to assess the effect of parental awareness on adolescent stress and stress management. MATERIAL AND

methodsA cross-sectional analytical study was conducted among 400 adolescents aged 11-18 years selected from schools in Gwalior district, India, from April 2022 to January 2024. Data were collected using the Adolescent Stress Scale (ADOSS) to assess stress, a self-constructed questionnaire for parental awareness, and the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS-6) to evaluate stress management (resilience). Descriptive and inferential statistics, including independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson correlation, and multivariate regression, were applied.

resultsMean stress score was 43.4 ± 10.1, parental awareness score was 65.1 ± 7.7, and stress management score was 74.2 ± 11.4. Significant differences in stress levels were observed across gender, school type, family type, parental education, and socioeconomic status (p<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant, moderate negative relationship between parental awareness and adolescent stress, indicating that higher parental awareness is associated with lower adolescent stress. Higher parental awareness was significantly associated with lower stress (β = -0.35, p = 0.001) and better stress management (β = 0.32, p = 0.001). Multivariate regression models explained 32% and 38% of variance in stress and stress management, respectively. Female sex, nuclear family structure, and lower socioeconomic status emerged as significant risk factors for higher stress and poorer coping.

conclusionParental awareness significantly influences adolescent stress and stress management. Family-centered interventions that enhance parental awareness may serve as an effective strategy to mitigate adolescent stress and promote resilience.
