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
Interprofessional education (IPE) is rapidly becoming a core element of health professions preparation programs worldwide, but the effectiveness of different IPE strategies and their impacts in different regions and populations remain unclear, especially in the vocational education setting. This article describes the overall research design including the development, testing and preliminary evaluation of the IPE education interventions for Chinese vocational healthcare students, following the procedure outlined in the UK Medical Research Council (MRC) framework for developing and implementing complex interventions in healthcare. The objective is to develop and adapt role-based IPE strategies and evaluate their feasibility and effectiveness on interprofessional competencies of vocational healthcare students in China, with nursing students being our focus.•This study adopts a mixed-methods approach to develop two IPE strategies related to role interaction (role-taking and role-playing) in comparison to one conventional IPE strategy (pure group discussion) and investigate the different effectiveness in vocational healthcare students' attitudes to IPE, perception of professional roles, and interprofessional collaborative competencies by three valid scales.•The study is divided into four stages: development, feasibility testing, evaluation and final experimental verification.•This study helps provide scientific and appropriate IPE strategies for vocational healthcare educators, so as to improve the interprofessional learning and collaborative ability of vocational healthcare students.
