1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: This study examined the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and their associated factors among 1st to 4th-year students at Walailak University who attended virtual classrooms for 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 382 students aged 18-23 years with no history of musculoskeletal disease or psychiatric disorder who had at least three months of virtual classroom learning. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-squared and Fisher's exact tests. Results: Most musculoskeletal abnormalities occurred in the shoulders, head and neck, and lower back at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months, respectively. At one week and one month in virtual classrooms, the occurrence of MSDs among the students was correlated with psychosocial factors (p < 0.05), and at three months, MSDs were associated with personal factors such as body mass index and psychosocial factors (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Stress management for students should be implemented in virtual classrooms to prevent MSDs.
