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
purposeAtopic dermatitis (AD) in adolescents has received less attention than AD in infants and children. However, AD can persist or worsen after school age and affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL) beyond adolescence. This study aimed to examine HRQoL and its associated factors among adolescents with AD, guided by Roy's Adaptation Model.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted between May and August 2023 and included adolescents aged 13-18 years with AD. Data on symptom experience, body image, peer relationships, self-management, HRQoL, and general and disease-related characteristics were collected using self-report questionnaires and electronic medical records. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis.
resultsA total of 97 adolescents with AD participated in the study, including 60 males (61.9%) and 37 females (38.1%). Participants were aged 13-18 years, with a mean age of 15.8±1.7 years. HRQoL was negatively correlated with symptom experience and positively correlated with body image, peer relationships, and self-management. Multiple regression analysis showed that allergen sensitization, symptom experience, and self-management were significantly associated with HRQoL, explaining approximately 40.0% of the variance.
conclusionSymptom experience and self-management were identified as key factors associated with HRQoL among adolescents with AD. Interventions aimed at reducing symptom burden and promoting active self-management are essential for improving HRQoL. These findings highlight the need to support adolescents' independence and underscore the importance of personalized education and effective self-management programs.
