Who will treat older patients? Should medical education focus more on activities aimed at displaying positive attitudes toward older people? The prevalence of ageism among students of medical and health sciences.

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
In the conditions of an aging society, a justification is found to explain the issue of the attitude of future health care workers, who are to care for elderly people in the future, toward these people, which will make it possible to predict in advance what problems related to the care of seniors may soon arise. After clarifying this issue, it will be important to distinguish the individual factors influencing this attitude in order to determine which social phenomena will require special attention. Eight hundred and three medical and health sciences students participated in the research from various fields of medical studies. A Survgo system was used, where an online questionnaire was placed and then posted in social media. Only students of medicine and healthcare facilities participated in the study. The first questionnaire contained socio-demographic questions. Then, the KOAP questionnaire and Welch's
