This is what I used
and after applying  the results just highlights the entire mv field in red

<format type="color">
<colorPalette type="expression"> case (match(value,"Large Effect"), "#ff0000",match(value,"Medium Effect"), "#ffff00",match(value,"Small Effect"),"#00ff00",true(),"#ffffff")</colorPalette>
</format>

Too many brackets - try like this

<colorPalette type="expression">case (match(value,"Large Effect") OR match(value,"No"),"#ff0000",match(value,"Medium Effect"), "#ffff00",match(value,"Small Effect"),"#00ff00",true(),"#ffffff")</colorPalette>
