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
backgroundTelemedicine is widely used in medical treatment and education systems. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the attitudes and awareness of medical students about it. We aimed to examine the awareness and attitudes of medical students, interns and residents toward telemedicine in medical education during the COVID-19 pandemic.
methodThis cross-sectional study was conducted after new educational approaches were implemented due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Two questionnaires were used to assess the new educational methodologies. Participants included residents (R), interns (I), and students (S) from the internal medicine department. A census sampling method was employed, inviting all medical education members who met the entry criteria to participate. The data were analyzed descriptively, and group differences were tested using chi-square, independent samples T-test, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis tests.
resultOut of 278 medical education members eligible to participate, 249 (89.5%) completed the study. The mean score for participants' attitudes was above 3 (
conclusionThe results of this survey reveal that medical students and interns may demonstrate a favorable awareness and attitude toward telemedicine. Consequently, developing educational programs and enhancing exposure to telemedicine should be considered since these elements could be vital for the future training of medical professionals.
