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
introductionBullying in educational environments, particularly among nursing students, is recognized as a significant challenge that can adversely affect their mental health and professional development. Therefore, this qualitative study aims to elucidate nursing students' experiences concerning the phenomenon of bullying during clinical training. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis qualitative study employed a conventional content analysis approach. Sixteen nursing students were selected using purposive sampling. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted to gather data. The collected data were analyzed using the method proposed by Lundman and Graneheim (2020). MAXQDA version 0.9.5 software was utilized for data management.
resultsThe mean age of the participants was 25.3 ± 3.9 years. Nursing students' experiences regarding bullying were articulated through five main themes, eleven categories, and twenty-two subcategories. The main themes included "contexts and agents of bullying," "type of bullying," "roots and causes of bullying," "characteristics of the bully," and "characteristics of the victims." The categories encompassed "educational settings," "healthcare environments," "administrative settings," "direct bullying," "indirect bullying," "clinical environment," "socio-economic factors," "psychological issues," "communication and emotional challenges," "individual challenges," and "educational challenges."
conclusionThe findings indicate that nursing students encounter various forms of bullying from different individuals in educational, therapeutic, and clinical settings. This issue necessitates serious attention from educational institutions and healthcare organizations. Academic institutions should proactively enhance students' abilities to cope with this phenomenon. Additionally, healthcare organizations must take the initiative to develop anti-bullying policies to mitigate this challenge. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
