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

backgroundThe transition from medical school to residency represents a critical period marked by increased personal stress and potential compromises in patient care. This study evaluated the impact of a Near-Peer Teaching Workshop on medical graduates' confidence and anxiety during the transition to postgraduate training.

methodsNewly qualified doctors attended a Near-Peer Teaching Workshop. The workshop design was informed by Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, emphasizing learning through observation, role modeling, and self-efficacy enhancement. Four interactive stations were facilitated by junior doctors focusing on crucial on-call topics. Pre- and post-workshop questionnaires assessed confidence in managing acute scenarios, communication skills, and anxiety regarding future on-calls.

resultsForty-seven participants attended the workshop; 47 (100%) and 43 (91.5%) completed the pre- and post-workshop questionnaires, respectively. The workshop significantly reduced anxiety regarding future on-call duties from 77.1% to 60.4% (

conclusionA theory-informed Near-Peer Teaching Workshop was associated with higher self-reported confidence and lower anxiety, demonstrating potential to address unmet learning needs in newly qualified doctors. Integrating near-peer teaching, observational learning, and self-efficacy strategies may strengthen transition-focused educational interventions for early postgraduate doctors.
