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

Spirituality is widely recognized as a resource for meaning-making and coping, yet comparatively little attention has been devoted to the progressive depletion of spiritual resources. The present study aimed to develop and provide initial psychometric validation of the spiritual burnout scale (SBS), a theoretically grounded instrument assessing spiritual meaning loss and spiritual exhaustion. Four independent samples of university students in Türkiye were used for principal component analysis (PCA; n = 342), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA; n = 195), criterion-related validity (n = 57), and test-retest reliability (n = 47). PCA identified a 16-item, two-factor structure, and CFA supported the proposed model (χ
