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
Problematic social media use has been increasingly linked to reduced quality of life; however, the mechanisms behind this association remain unclear. This study examined whether emotional eating mediates the relationship between social media addiction and quality of life, and whether spirituality moderates this relationship. The sample consisted of 612 young adults (M = 21.43 years, SD = 4.54) in Poland, and validated research instruments were employed. Results showed an indirect relationship between social media addiction and quality of life through emotional eating. Moreover, spirituality moderated the relationship between emotional eating and quality of life, such that the indirect effect was significant for individuals with average or high levels of spirituality but non-significant for those with low levels. The results were highly comparable between females and males. These findings suggest that higher levels of spirituality may be associated with lower quality of life when individuals engage in behaviors that conflict with their values.
