Near-Peer Tutor: A Solution For Quality Medical Education in Faculty Constraint Setting.
Review in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 papers.
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
Near-peer mentoring is a formal relationship in which more qualified students guide immediate junior students. It is an innovative approach to increase students' engagement from varied backgrounds and cultures in the health profession. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate and compare the effectiveness of near-peer tutoring and faculty/expert teaching in health science undergraduates on knowledge and skill outcome. The review question considered was "how effective is near-peer tutor compare to faculty/expert teaching for undergraduate health science students?" A comprehensive systematic search was undertaken in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane and screened initially in Rayyan software (Qatar Computing Research Institute, Qatar). Identified articles were screened independently for eligibility by two reviewers and extracted the data. Data were analyzed using standardized mean difference with Review manager version 5.5 (Cochrane Campbell Collaboration). Sixteen studies were analyzed. Heterogeneity (I
