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
Background: Medical students in Egypt are increasingly susceptible to higher levels of stress and anxiety compared to their peers. The current study aimed to assess the effect of stress management intervention in decreasing their stress and anxiety levels. Design and methods: A randomized controlled study was conducted on two phases survey and intervention phase using perceived stress scale to assess stress and Beck Anxiety Inventory to assess anxiety. Students with moderate/severe stress in the survey stage were stratified randomized to intervention or control group (140 in each group). The program was composed of 12 sessions for 12 weeks. Stress and anxiety were re assessed immediately after and in 3 months post intervention. Results: There was no significant difference between the means of perceived stress between the intervention and control groups at the baseline (25.03 ± 3.18, 24.40 ± 3.15, Conclusions: The stress management program was effective in decreasing perceived stress level among medical students. The widespread implementation of the study program could help medical students for coping with their stress levels.
