Exploring Absenteeism in Medical Education: Perceptions of Students and Professors at the University of Granada.
Article in Medical science educator, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Student absenteeism in higher education has become a growing concern due to its potential impact on academic performance and professional development. This study aims to assess the prevalence of absenteeism in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Granada (Spain) and to explore the perceptions of both students and professors regarding this issue. Attendance was recorded at two different points during the semester, and surveys were conducted among faculty members and students to gather qualitative and quantitative data. Results showed a significant decrease in attendance over the semester. Faculty members identified lack of student engagement and large class sizes as key issues, while students highlighted poor teaching methodologies and excessive workload as the main reasons for non-attendance. The findings suggest that improving teaching methods, increasing student engagement, and restructuring class formats may help to reduce absenteeism.
