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
Depression and anxiety are common in adolescence girls. This study aims to examine the prevalence and risk factors associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms in Chinese adolescent girls. A cross-sectional study was conducted in six provinces in the eastern, central, and western regions of China. A total of 4,658 adolescence girls aged 10-19 years old was included in this study. Depressive and anxiety symptoms were assessed by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and the Generalized Anxiety Disorders-7(GAD-7), respectively. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the effects of sociodemographic, academic pressure, physical/mental violence, interpersonal relationship, and lifestyle on depressive and anxiety symptoms. In our study, the prevalence rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms were 6.0% (279/4658) and 2.6% (122/4658), respectively. The multivariable logistic regression models show that risk factors including education level of junior high school and above, suffering from physical/mental violence, having academic pressure, having poor interpersonal relationship problems significantly increase the risk of both depressive and anxiety symptoms (P < 0.05), while additionally shorter night time sleep duration significantly increases the risk of depression symptoms (OR = 1.46. 95%CI:1.08-1.97, P = 0.01). The prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms are 6.0% and 2.6%, respectively among Chinese adolescent girls, with certain sociodemographic, academic pressure, and interpersonal relationship problem being the risk factors of depressive and anxiety symptoms.
