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

Service-learning is an academic activity that most US colleges and schools of pharmacy report including in their curriculum. Service-learning can be a valuable form of experiential education that helps to reinforce didactic curricula and develop and refine the soft skills needed for pharmacy practice. However, while providing various forms of service in communities, student pharmacists may not be conducting authentic service-learning. To be considered authentic, service-learning requires the adoption of structured learning outcomes, engaged and prepared students, mutually beneficial experiences for community and students, and completion of student reflection guided with faculty feedback.
