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: This study examines the mediating and moderating mechanisms through which coping strategies influence athletes' wellbeing in resilience training programs. Drawing on the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping, we propose that mental resilience and emotional regulation mediate the relationship between coping strategies and wellbeing, while training intensity strengthens these relationships. Methods: A moderated mediation model was developed and tested using data collected from 300 athletes participating in structured resilience training programs. The study examined the associations of problem-focused and emotion-focused coping strategies with wellbeing through the mediating roles of mental resilience and emotional regulation, and assessed whether training intensity moderated these pathways. Results: The findings supported the hypothesized model. Both mental resilience and emotional regulation significantly mediated the relationship between coping strategies and athletes' wellbeing. In addition, training intensity significantly moderated the relationships between coping strategies and both mediators, with stronger associations observed among athletes engaged in higher-intensity training. The positive effects of coping strategies on wellbeing were therefore enhanced under conditions of greater training intensity. Discussion: The results highlight the importance of fostering effective coping strategies, mental resilience, and emotional regulation to improve athletes' wellbeing. They further suggest that higher-intensity resilience training may amplify these beneficial effects. These findings provide practical guidance for optimizing resilience training programs and offer directions for future research on interventions designed to enhance athletes' psychological wellbeing.
