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
Background: Body image serves as an auxiliary to nonverbal communication, facilitating the transmission of nonverbal information in interpersonal interactions. However, burn patients often experience body image disturbances due to scarring, skin pigmentation changes, and functional impairments, leading to communication difficulties and social anxiety. Regrettably, this phenomenon has received limited in-depth exploration in previous research. Methods: To address this gap, this study, based on the fear-avoidance model, randomly recruited 286 patients to analyze the impact of body image disturbances on social avoidance and its internal mechanisms. Results: The experimental results demonstrated that burn patients with higher levels of body image disturbances exhibited stronger tendencies toward social avoidance. In this process, psychological resilience could mitigate the adverse effects of body image disturbances on social avoidance by enhancing individuals' adaptability. Burn patients with high family support often exhibited more positive cognitions of their body image, enhanced their psychological resilience, and improved their social avoidance. Conclusion: This study further deepened and expanded the fear-avoidance model by proposing a collaborative intervention framework involving family support and psychological resilience. These findings offer new practical suggestions for clinical practitioners and family members to enhance the interpersonal communication skills of burn patients.
