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.

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.

Abstract
Introduction: With internet flaming emerging as a prominent social issue, strategies for addressing it are increasingly needed. Despite various countermeasures, the issue remains under-addressed due to a predominant focus on Methods: Two large-scale questionnaire surveys, with 3,040 participants in total, were conducted. Results: The findings provide insights into psychological factors that contribute to internet flaming and indicate trait patterns that tend to appear among individuals who play central roles in such incidents. Discussion: By examining psychological characteristics associated with internet flaming, this study offers an initial step toward building safer online spaces. While the predictive power of the models was limited, the results highlight potential directions for future research on personality-informed approaches to online conflict, complementing existing reactive strategies.
