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

The decreasing involvement of youth in voluntary practices necessitates training and mobilizing them for voluntary activities. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop and test the efficacy of a culture-sensitive training program on enhancing knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of volunteering among university students in Oman. We adopted a quasi-experimental design with a pre-post-test on the KAP of volunteering and designed a specialized training program spanning 10 weeks. Training was given to two groups of university students independently during different semesters to test the efficacy of the program (group 1 and group 2). The results of the paired
