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

Based on the ecological systems theory of creative development, this study is the first to use network analysis to systematically investigate the complex relationships among the influencing factors of creativity. Using a sample of 510 traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) university students, a psychological network model was constructed that encompasses personality, parenting styles, psychological resilience, and creativity. The results suggest that tenacity of psychological resilience had the highest strength centrality in the network and was the central influence variable. Neuroticism of personality had the highest bridge strengths, indicating that it acts as a bridge connecting multiple nodes in the network. Curiosity was the core dimension of creativity. The centrality stability coefficients of the network's node strength (CS = 0.75) and bridge strength (CS = 0.60) were both > 0.25, suggesting that the network model has good stability. These findings suggest that enhancing resilience, regulating neuroticism, and stimulating curiosity can help cultivate creativity. Moreover, This provides an important theoretical basis and practical guidance for optimizing the talent cultivation model at TCM universities and enhancing students' creativity.
