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

Mathematics fact fluency is essential for proficiency in advanced topics, such as algebra. However, many students in the United States, including those in elementary and secondary grades, experience mathematics difficulties (MD) and struggle to develop fluency with mathematics facts. We synthesized findings from 35 group-design studies, reporting 178 effect sizes (ESs), conducted between 1975 and June 2024, to evaluate the efficacy of fact fluency interventions and identify key malleable moderators of intervention outcomes. Results from a Robust Variance Estimation (RVE) model revealed an educationally meaningful average ES (
