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
BackgroundSelf-guided Digital Mental Health Interventions (DMHIs) are increasingly used amongst young people as they are scalable and may improve access to support.ObjectiveTo assess the acceptability, feasibility, utility, and immediate effects of Project ABC-UK, a Single-Session Behavioural Activation DMHI for UK youth.MethodsA single group pre-post design was used. Participants (aged 13-18) completed demographics, as well as measures of hope, self-agency, hopelessness, and perceived control before and after the online intervention. It was completed anonymously, and participants gave feedback. T- and chi-square tests compared completers and non-completers; pre-post effects were assessed using paired t-tests with effect sizes (Cohen's d). Thematic analysis explored feedback.ResultsOf 799 participants, 401 (50.1%) completed the intervention, of whom 356 (88%) completed at least one post-intervention measure. Completers were more likely to be younger, have higher pre-intervention hope and self-agency, and to identify as sexual minorities. Significant improvements were found in hope and self-agency (
