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.

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
Background & objective: It's no secret that medical students have access to a plethora of medical literature, which can make it challenging to determine the right sources and how to cover them effectively using various study habits and strategies. Our objective was to determine the association of study habits (time and location), study duration, study strategies, and study sources with academic performance. Methods: It was a cross-sectional study conducted in six Medical Colleges in Peshawar, Pakistan between 13 Results: The study revealed that daily study hours (during normal days), residence status, library study, morning study timings, active recall, MCQS solving, and watching online videos made a significant association with academic performance (P < 0.05). Pearson's correlation showed a positive and statistically significant association between daily study hours (during normal days), study strategies, and academic performance (p < 0.05). The multiple regression model explained 30.5% of the variance in academic performance. Conclusion: This study established a noteworthy link between academic performance and various factors, including daily study hours, strategies, and specific study sources. Notably, morning study sessions, active recall, MCQs-based strategies, and online video resources showed significant associations with enhanced academic performance.
