APPLIED TRAINING IN A MEDICAL ANTHROPOLOGY MASTER'S PROGRAM.
Article in Practicing anthropology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Learning practical skills is key to becoming an applied anthropologist. For my MS degree, I chose a program at Boston University School of Medicine that incorporates skills development into the curriculum through its Service-Learning Internship Program (SLIP). The SLIP facilitates students' familiarity with their field site throughout the first year, before they start summer fieldwork. My SLIP and thesis fieldwork took place in a VA hospital's pain clinic-a placement ideal for my interest in researching pain management during an opioid epidemic. This paper describes my training, developing a research question, meeting theoretical and logistical requirements, handling the unpredictable nature of research, data collection, analysis, and writing. I use getting Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval for my thesis project as an example of how these skills came together. Guided by my mentors, this experience afforded me hands-on training. I can now bring my anthropological approach into the work force.
