Impact of Scribe Experience on Undergraduate Medical Education.
Article in Medical science educator, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 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
Medical scribes have become a common fixture in healthcare, but little is known about the impact of a scribe experience on medical school performance. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of scribe experience for medical students and impact on performance. Thirty-four percent of students were scribes prior to medical school. The majority of scribes felt their scribe experience helped them during their pre-clerkship curriculum. However, there were no significant differences in USMLE Step 1 scores, pre-clerkship class rank, post-encounter note grades, and wellbeing between students with and without scribe experience.
