Evaluating the Impact of a Medical School Student-Run Research Organization on Scholarly Activity.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction The United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 change to Pass/Fail scoring has motivated medical students to pursue more research opportunities. To support students, a student-led organization was created at an allopathic medical school, offering initiatives such as workshops, mentorship, and research projects. Here, we evaluate its impact on medical student research. Methods An observational survey study was conducted to assess students' research involvement and productivity and their sense of support, confidence, and comfort in pursuing research at an institution during the first two years of medical school. These variables were compared between three contiguous classes of students and between club members and non-members. Analyses included t-tests, Chi-square tests, and ANOVA, among others. Results Findings revealed that organization membership was associated with an increased number of research projects. Club members (
