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
The increasing interest in Turkish educational programs has led to the increasing interest in educational migration among the younger Iranian generations. Instructors, as the executive part of educational programs, can also play a key role in satisfying students' expectations and educational goals. The aim of this study was to identify and compare the Critical Openness (CO), Reflective Skepticism (RS), innovative thinking (IT), external accountability (EA), and internal accountability (IA) for the Iranian and Turkish English as Foreign Language (EFL) instructors through an online survey with Critical Thinking Theory and the 21st century skill consideration lens. To this end, a convenient sample of Iranian (N = 286) and Turkish (N = 281) EFL instructors were invited to take part in the online survey voluntarily. The scales consisted of the Likert scales of Rosenblatt (2017) [1], Semerci (2007) [2], and Sosu (2013) [3], because the conceptual frameworks were also taken from these studies. In the analysis stage, MANOVA was conducted to compare the results of the online survey between Iranian and Turkish EFL instructors in terms of their level of CO, RS, IT, EA, and IA. The analysis of the collected data uncovered that Turkish EFL instructors got higher scores in CO, RS, EA, and IA than Iranian EFL instructors while Iranian EFL instructors received higher scores in the employment of IT. The implications of the results would suggest collaborations between educational policymakers and teacher training course designers.
