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: Guided by the Teaching Through Interactions framework, this study examined how teacher emotional support, teacher instructional support, and disciplinary climate were related to students' school bullying victimization, focusing on the serial mediating roles of school belonging and exclusion. Methods: A total of 798 students aged 12-16 years in eastern China were surveyed using the PISA-adapted scales to measure the domains of teacher-student relationship, school belonging, school exclusion, and bullying victimization. Structural equation modeling was used to assess direct and indirect pathways. Results: Teacher emotional and instructional support were positively associated with school belonging, which in turn was related to lower exclusion and reduced bullying victimization. Disciplinary climate was indirectly linked to less bullying, primarily through lower exclusion. Discussion: These findings clarify how multidimensional teacher-student relationship shapes bullying through school belonging and exclusion in Chinese schools. These findings extend social-ecological and interactional perspectives to the Chinese context and highlight practical levers for prevention, including strengthening teacher emotional and instructional support, fostering a fair disciplinary climate, and addressing school belonging and exclusion as proximal mediators and intervention targets.
