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

Introduction: Discrimination is a known risk factor for poorer mental health and reduced wellbeing during adolescence. This study aims to examine whether perceived inclusion in school mediates the relationship between perceived discrimination and quality of life (QoL) among adolescents. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 839 Spanish adolescents aged 12 to 16 years. Participants completed the Everyday Discrimination Scale (EDS), the Perceptions of Inclusion Questionnaire (PIQ), and the KINDL-R QoL measure. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the direct and indirect effects of discrimination on QoL, with inclusion as a proposed mediator. Measurement invariance across gender was also assessed. Results: Perceived discrimination showed a significant negative association with QoL ( Discussion: Findings highlight the importance of fostering inclusive educational environments to enhance adolescent wellbeing. Future studies should examine these relationships longitudinally and across diverse cultural contexts.
