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

This chapter provides an overview of how international students in the United States used media and interpersonal channels to communicate with family, friends, and each other during the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapter starts by discussing the challenges of international students during the health pandemic. It then provides a review of the role of media during a crisis. Factors influencing media use during the COVID-19 crisis include culture, personality, and time spent in a foreign country. Finally, the chapter ends by providing suggestions for how universities can better equip their international offices to deal with international students during challenging times such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
