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.

Abstract

With the aim of determining the relationship between language and mathematics performance using a more general approach, this study examines the findings of primary meta-analyses using the meta-meta-analysis method. To achieve this, the study synthesized 12 independent primary meta-analyses representing an aggregated sample of more than 3.6 million participants. Because some primary studies overlapped across reviews, this figure reflects the cumulative rather than the unique number of participants. The results suggest a positive, moderate, and statistically significant relationship between language and mathematics performance (
