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

Introduction: The readiness of students for interprofessional learning and academic self-efficacy have traditionally been studied as separate constructs, but their integration provides a powerful conceptual framework for understanding and enhancing collaborative health care education in the context of KSA. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the readiness for interprofessional learning among undergraduate medical, dentistry, and applied medical sciences students' in KSA in order to identify factors influencing readiness and to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy and interprofessional education (IPE) readiness. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was employed utilizing a convenience sample of undergraduate students from medical, dentistry, and applied medical sciences schools. Data were collected through online questionnaires, including the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS), Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES), and a demographic survey. Statistical analyses examined the relationships between these constructs while controlling for demographic and educational variables. Results: In total, 718 students participated and the RIPLS scores differed significantly between colleges ( Conclusion: The integration of IPE readiness and academic self-efficacy as complementary educational principles showed that the confidence of students in their academic abilities significantly influenced their openness to collaborative learning. This conceptual framework provides a transformative approach for enhancing IPE initiatives by addressing both professional attitudes and academic self-confidence simultaneously, ultimately contributing to the development of a more collaborative and effective health care workforce in alignment with Saudi Vision 2030 health care objectives.
