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

It is hypothesized that increasing literacy skills such as reading rate (fluency) and reading accuracy with children is possible through intentionally developed interventions focused on musical memory, timing, and production (e.g., clapping to a steady beat). Previous studies have found these effects to be significant with third-grade students, an age when school curriculum emphasizes literacy development. Using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, we tested the effects of a musical intervention integrating English Language Arts (ELA) content from the Fundations program on rhythm and literacy skills with third-grade students aged eight to 10 (
