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
The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked radical shifts in the ways that both health care and health professions education are delivered. Before the pandemic, some degree programs were offered fully online or in a hybrid format, but in-person learning was considered essential to the education and training of health professionals. Similarly, even as the use of telehealth was slowly expanding, most health care visits were conducted in-person. The need to maintain a safe physical distance during the pandemic rapidly increased the online provision of health care and health professions education, accelerating technology adoption in both academic and professional health care settings. Many health care professionals, educators, and patients have had to adapt to new communication modalities, often with little or no preparation. Before the pandemic, the need for cost-effective, robust methodologies to enable teaching across distances electronically was recognized. During the pandemic, online learning and simulation became essential and were often the only means available for continuity of education and clinical training. This paper reviews the transition to online health professions education and delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic and provides recommendations for moving forward.
