1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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.

MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this assessor-blinded randomized clinical trial with pretest, post-test, and 6-month follow-up, 30 Farhangian University students in 2024 were selected through convenience sampling and randomly assigned to either an intervention or control group (

resultsANOVA analysis revealed significant reductions in symptoms of depression (

conclusionsThe results indicated the effectiveness of UP in improving ER and CF and reducing subclinical symptoms of students in the intervention group, indicating the importance of UP as the preferred treatment in emotional disorders and also the significance of preventing the complete clinical manifestation of subclinical symptoms of emotional disorders.
