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
University students' adoption of generative artificial intelligence has become nearly universal, yet institutional guidance has not kept pace, leaving responsible use dependent on students' own self-regulation. Drawing on social cognitive theory, this study examined whether self-regulated learning accounts for the association between AI literacy and self-reported responsible use of generative AI, and how technostress relates to that association. A cross-sectional survey of 820 Peruvian undergraduates from public and private universities was analyzed using covariance-based structural equation modeling; a two-stage moderated mediation model with latent interactions was estimated using latent moderated structural equations. Measurement invariance held across gender and university type, and the available diagnostics did not indicate a dominant common-method factor. AI literacy predicted self-regulated learning (β = 0.626) and responsible use (β = 0.243), and self-regulated learning predicted responsible use (β = 0.445). The indirect effect was significant, β = 0.278, 95% CI [0.226, 0.337], accounting for 53.4% of the total effect. Technostress showed no significant moderation of the first stage or the direct path, but the second-stage path was significantly weaker at higher levels of technostress (
