I don’t understand what you’re saying. What does the line actually imply? And what do people think it implies? (Part of my confusion is that I don’t think the stats imply anything at all.)

To reiterate: 1. The article claims that Facebook's own internal research found that Instagram exacerbates mental health issues in teen girls. No surrounding context given. It implies that it's straight up harmful. 2. The actual research said that 31% of teen girls felt that Instagram made body image issues worse. 45.5% said Instagram had no impact and 22% said Instagram made it better. For the other 11 out of 12 mental health issues surveyed teen girls said that Instagram made it better, on average. They somehow read number #2, but then wrote #1 based on that. And this type of statement been repeated over and over again online.
