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

backgroundCoronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic caused the closure of many face-to-face classes in Iran's universities of medical sciences, so e-learning was adopted as the alternative method. This study aims to examine the medical students' perspectives on e-learning continuance intention. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this quantitative study, the population included 1,453 students and the statistical sample size was determined to be 305 students using the Cochran formula. The participants were selected using stratified sampling method based on the field of study and the data were collected by e-learning evaluation questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 in addition to descriptive statistics.

resultsThe results showed the mean perceived autonomy, perceived competence, and communication in e-learning, intrinsic motivation, information quality, e-learning applicability and students' satisfaction with e-learning courses were 2.61, 2.81, 2.91, 3.03, 2.98, 2.92, and 3.31, respectively. There was no significant correlation between the competence and applicability, user satisfaction and e-learning continuance intention. Moreover, e-learning continuance intention had the highest correlation with students' satisfaction (0.787) and information applicability (0.784), respectively.

conclusionMedical students had a tendency to continue e-learning, even after controlling the COVID-19 outbreak, and health education policymakers can be of use in this opportunity to developing educational services.
