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
purposeThis qualitative study examined the inner response of medical students who participated in a transgender healthcare education program. The factors that effected the inner response were investigated in order to suggest strategies for improving the effectiveness of the transgender healthcare education program.
methodsThe transgender healthcare education program consisted of 2 hours of lectures and 2 hours of clinical role-play over 3 weeks. Eight 4-year medical students in Seoul, South Korea, were selected considering gender, the route of admission to medical school, and religion. Each student was interviewed individually for approximately 30 minutes 3 times before, during, and after the educational program, and interviews were analyzed using thematic analysis.
resultsBy attending the transgender healthcare education program, students have shown three types of inner response-confusion, acceptance, and negotiation. The students' personal identities and professional identities influenced these responses. In particular, students' existing professional identities motivated them to learn about transgender healthcare and played a key role in resolving the discomfort that occurred during the educational program. Through the transgender healthcare education, students were able to reduce prejudice against transgender people, understand the unique medical needs of the transgender population and increase their self-efficacy related to transgender health care.
conclusionThe transgender healthcare education program allowed medical school students to acquire medical knowledge related to transgender patients and increase their cultural competence as future medical professionals. In addition, as the professional identity is critical in educating transgender healthcare, it should be considered thoroughly in order to effectively educate the medical students.
