Attitudes Towards Conflicts of Interest in Medical Research: A Survey of US Medical Students.
Article in Medical science educator, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Industry funds nearly two-thirds of US healthcare research, and industry-sponsorship may produce more favorable research results and conclusions. Medical students report feeling inadequately prepared to avoid negative industry influence. Research of educational interventions that educate students on the potential effects of industry influence is lacking, and no interventions have demonstrated long-term benefit. Surveying and assessing student opinions of the relationship between industry and research may help improve future educational interventions. We surveyed preclinical and clinical students at seven US medical schools regarding their attitudes towards industry conflicts of interest (COIs) in medical research. A total of 466 medical students including 232 preclinical and 234 clinical students completed the survey. Of those who had research experience, clinical students were more likely than preclinical students to look for COIs (62.0% v 45.9%,
