How does gender influence student learning, stress and career choice in endodontics?
Review in International endodontic journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The influence of gender is underexplored in endodontic educational research. This review examines the effect of gender on learning within the domains of skill acquisition, performance and difficulties encountered. It also analyses the stress and confidence experienced by male and female students during clinical endodontics, as well as their preparedness at the end of their undergraduate studies. Finally, this review analyses the influence of gender on student career choices in dentistry with a focus on endodontics. The review highlights that gender is invariably studied as a secondary outcome in endodontic education. Based on current evidence, it appears that female students tend to underestimate their skills and knowledge more than male counterparts in endodontics. They are also often more stressed than males, feeling less confident and not as prepared. A recognition of gender differences in learning and stress management is important. Student aspirations regarding their choice of endodontic postgraduate speciality appear to be relatively well balanced in terms of gender. Finally, there is a need for further research to elucidate more clearly the impact of gender in endodontic education and endodontic career choice.
