Article in Medical education online, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
People with limited health literacy comprise a high-risk group for adverse health outcomes. Nurses must be made aware of the importance of health literacy and communicate with patients in plain language, which will solve the obstacles for patients using health care services. Providing health literacy education for nurses is an important strategy for health literacy practices. This study aimed to develop a refined health literacy course for nursing students and evaluate its effectiveness. The study used a single-group pre- and post-test quasi-experimental design and conducted focus group interviews. The intervention was an eight-hour course and applied team-based learning combined with various teaching methods. The study enrolled second-year nursing students of a university in eastern Taiwan via convenient sampling. A self-reported structured questionnaire was used to compare the participants' familiarity with health literacy, attitude, confidence in oral communication, and ability in written communication before and after the course. To discuss the learning experience of the course, the study held two focus groups with 12 participants. A total of 81 participants completed the pre- and post-test questionnaires. The results showed that familiarity with health literacy (
