Exploring the experiences of medical students regarding the factors affecting academic achievement: a qualitative study.
Article in BMC medical education, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundAcademic achievement is one of the most important criteria in assessing students' ability to complete their university studies and reach the graduation stage. Students in medical sciences are considered the primary recipients of educational services and are the best source for identifying problems in medical or clinical education, as they are directly and indirectly involved in this interaction process.
methodsThis study was conducted in the years 2022-2023 using conventional content analysis at Tabriz University of Medical Sciences. A total of 23 students from various faculties of this university were selected through purposive sampling, and their experiences and perspectives were utilized until data saturation was reached. Data was collected through semi-structured, in-depth individual interviews using an interview guide. Content analysis was performed using the conventional content analysis method.
resultsTwo main themes were extracted with the titles "Facilitators of Academic Achievement" and "Barriers to Academic Achievement ". "Teacher-related Factors," "Assessment and Evaluation," "Student-related Factors," "Learning Environment," and "Support Systems" were the categories derived from the analysis of the data for academic achievement, and "Poor Educational Quality and Teaching Methods," "Lack of Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Integration," "Inappropriate Educational Planning and Administration," "Communication Issues," and "Contextual barriers," were the categories derived for "Barriers to Academic achievement" based on 238 codes and 36 subcategories.
conclusionSince factors such as satisfaction with educational and welfare facilities and academic motivation impact the quality of education, examining these variables from students' perspectives is beneficial for formulating regulations, providing appropriate facilities, planning for the training of capable students, and selecting suitable educational and learning processes.
