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
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic had serious implications on medical schools' programs that necessitated lots of adaptations of teaching, learning, and assessment to guarantee continuity of education in medical schools. Our study aimed to evaluate perspectives of clerkship students and faculty members regarding clinical teaching adaptations implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, survey-based study was conducted and targeted 5 Results: The survey exhibited high internal consistency. Both students and faculty members felt that most of the adaptations had moderate to high contribution to student achievement of expected clinical competencies. On a 5-point scale, the highest score was given by faculty members to "Interpretation of investigations" (3.93±0.84) while the lowest scores were given by faculty members (3.10±1.21) and students (2.57±1.36) to "Performing clinical procedures". Students and faculty members agreed that the adaptations had positive effect on students' learning except for the statement "Students were able to easily monitor their academic progress" where students gave less scores than faculty members, with a statistically significance difference (p=0.029). Conclusion: Students and faculty members had similar perspectives regarding the implemented adaptations and their impact and contribution to student learning and achievement of the basic clinical competencies. Both of them agreed on the need for and importance of the implemented adaptations. Our findings recommend such adaptations during the times of crises, which can be conducted through integrating online teaching with face-to-face teaching.
