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
Objective: With the introduction of the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and changing life conditions, behavioral addictions have gained more prominence in academia. Behavioral addictions exhibit common and unique features, both in comparison to non-behavioral addictions and among different types of behavioral addictions. Pathological gambling or gambling disorder is included in the DSM-5 and can be considered the prototype of behavioral addiction. Therefore, in this study we aim to highlight the similarities and differences between pathological gambling and technology addictions in the context of impulsivity and social anxiety. Method: In our study, 564 university students were included. Each student completed the South Oaks Gambling Screen, Technology Addiction Scale, Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale, and the short form of the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale. Results: The rate of pathological gambling was found to be 10.3% (n=58). According to the hierarchical regression analysis, impulsivity predicts both pathological gambling and technology addictions, while social anxiety predicts only technology addictions (including instant messaging addiction, online game addiction, and website addiction). Conclusion: Behavioral addictions share characteristics with other behavioral addictions, as well as with non-behavioral addictions. However, there are unique factors in the development of each addiction that should be considered since identifying these factors can contribute to the development of personalized therapies. Therefore, there is a need for studies that focus on pathological gambling while comparing different behavioral addictions across various contexts. In this regard, the present study offers a modest example.
