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
Impostor syndrome is prevalent among undergraduate nursing and medical students. Resilience is the ability to adapt and rebound from challenges, which is crucial for student well-being and academic success. Exploring the connection between impostor syndrome and resilience is essential to support students effectively. This cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between resilience and impostor syndrome among undergraduate nursing and medical students at King Saud Bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences. A total of 300 students were recruited using a convenience sample and completed self-reported questionnaires assessing resilience and impostor syndrome between September 2022 and March 2023. Various bias mitigation strategies were employed to ensure data accuracy and reliability, such as anonymous data collection and validated scales. The results indicated that less than half of the participants experienced impostor syndrome. Among nursing students, 41.7% were classified as severe, 37.7% as moderate, and 13.0% as intense impostors. For medical students, 4.6% were mild, 4.6% moderate, 4.5% severe, and 4.5% intense impostors. Mean resilience scores were 24.3 ± 7.15 for nursing students and 25.6 ± 7.22 for medical students. A significant negative correlation was found between resilience and impostor syndrome scores (r = -0.220,
