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

backgroundNear-peer teaching (NPT) has been successfully used in other medical specialties but not in ear, nose and throat surgery (ENT). Historically, undergraduates receive limited ENT exposure and subsequently report low confidence in ENT competencies. This has been a posited cause of high referral rates to the specialty. This study aimed to see if NPT could be implemented as an adjunct to traditional ENT teaching. ACTIVITY: Learners received a short NPT module that was focused on clinical ENT. Pre- and post-module questionnaires collected data on students' confidence and knowledge. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: One hundred twenty-five undergraduate learners received the intervention. There was a significant percentage increase in both confidence (24.2%,
