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
Objective: This study examined the relationship between short-form video addiction and academic burnout among adolescents, focusing on the mediating role of emotional state and the moderating role of grade level. The potential moderating role of family intimacy was also explored. Methods: A sample of 1,719 secondary school students (51.9% male) from five provinces in China completed validated measures of short-form video addiction, emotional state (DASS-21), family intimacy (Family Environment Scale), and academic burnout. Moderated mediation analyses were conducted using linear regression with bootstrapped confidence intervals. Results: Short-form video addiction positively predicted academic burnout (β = 0.162, Conclusion: Grade level significantly attenuated the direct risk of short-form video addiction, whereas family intimacy did not reliably moderate the emotional pathway. Interventions targeting emotion regulation skills and considering developmental stage may be promising for reducing academic burnout among adolescents.
