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: The present study aims at investigating the relationship between student-perceived teacher support and their L2 engagement through the mediating role of academic buoyancy in EFL contexts. Methods: In doing so, a group of 415 Chinese EFL learners were recruited to complete three closed-ended questionnaires, assessing the levels of teacher support, academic buoyancy and L2 engagement. Besides, 48 students were invited to respond to an open-ended questionnaire to triangulate the quantitative findings and gain a nuanced understanding of the interrelationships among these constructs. Results: Correlation analysis indicated that student-perceived teacher support, academic buoyancy and L2 engagement were positively and significantly correlated with each other. Structural equation modeling analysis indicated a significantly positive relationship between EFL learners' perceptions of teacher support and L2 engagement. In addition, academic buoyancy partially mediated the relationship between teacher support and L2 engagement. The qualitative data have triangulated the quantitative findings and corroborated the impact of student-perceived teacher support on enhancing EFL learners' academic buoyancy and L2 engagement. Discussion: This paper has confirmed the essential role of teacher support in developing EFL learners' ability to cope with setbacks and pressures as well as enhancing their involvement in the ordinary course of English learning.
