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
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the Sun Yat-sen Intelligent Education Platform-an AI-powered, multimodal learning system-in bridging the gap between preclinical and clinical knowledge and enhancing learning outcomes among undergraduate medical students. Methods: A mixed-methods, prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 80 fourth-year medical students at Sun Yat-sen University. Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group (n = 40), which used the AI platform alongside traditional teaching, or a control group (n = 40), which received standard instruction only. The study spanned six weeks, culminating in an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The primary outcome was the OSCE composite score. Secondary outcomes included subdomain scores (history taking, differential diagnosis, treatment planning) and student-reported satisfaction via a validated anonymous survey using 5-point Likert scales and open-ended questions assessing usability, educational value, and perceived integration of knowledge. Results: The intervention group achieved significantly higher OSCE total scores than the control group (85.7 ± 5.8 vs. 78.3 ± 7.1; Conclusion: These findings suggest that the AI-based multimodal platform, The Sun Yat-sen Intelligent Education Platform, may support knowledge integration and self-directed learning in undergraduate medical education, though further validation in larger, multi-institutional settings is warranted.
