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

Students of Health professions education suffer higher rate of mental illness compared to age-matched peers. Stigma, worries about confidentiality, poor accessibility are barriers to help-seeking among students. To overcome these, we started a Distress and Suicide Prevention Help (DASH) for the students of the University in May 2019. This study aimed to collect feedback on utilization of DASH service. An anonymous cross-sectional survey using a Google form was carried out among service users. The treating consultant retrieved service users' contacts from hospital records. The investigator-designed questionnaire consisted of fifteen Likert scale questions and three open-ended questions related to the DASH service. Sixty-two service users were approached, of whom 31 users responded [8 males, 23 females, response rate 50%]. Anxiety, sadness, and difficulty in concentration were the most common presenting complaints. Adjustment disorder, MDD, and anxiety disorder were the most common diagnoses. Overall experience was rated as good to extremely good by 93.5% (
