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

Inquiry-based instruction has been well demonstrated to enhance long term retention and to improve application and synthesis of knowledge. Here we describe an inquiry-based teaching module that trains undergraduates as scientists who pose questions, design and execute hypothesis-driven experiments, analyze data and communicate their research findings. Before students design their research projects, they learn and practice several research techniques with the model organism,
