1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Workplace bullying is a significant issue impacting various professions, including the healthcare sector. This study presents a meta-analysis aimed at assessing the global prevalence of workplace bullying among medical students and identifying potential influencing factors. Previous research suggests that medical students experience higher rates of bullying compared to senior doctors. However, no worldwide meta-analysis has been conducted on this topic. By utilizing a reliable measurement tool, this study will offer a comprehensive analysis of the prevalence of workplace bullying among medical students. The findings are intended to inform the development of strategies to address this issue and enhance the well-being and professional development of medical students worldwide.
