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.

The first questionnaire included 43 questions distributed over eight main axes to assess students' self-assessment of their practical and theoretical curriculum knowledge.The second questionnaire, the Learner Satisfaction Scale, included 25 questions over five main axes to assess students' satisfaction.Descriptive statistics, including frequency distribution and percentages, were calculated. The mean responses on the Likert scale were used to determine the direction of the responses, and the standard deviation was used to measure the homogeneity of the responses.Results Out of 700 fifth-year students, 582 responded to the questionnaire, resulting in a response rate of 83.14%.The results of the first questionnaire showed that the highest self-assessment score was for behavior management techniques (
