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
Background and Aims: The rapid growth of virtual education in higher education necessitates an examination of its ethical and psychological implications. This study examines the impact of students' attitudes toward e-learning on their commitment to ethical behavior and stress levels within virtual learning environments in southern Iran. Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational study involved 256 students from Bushehr University of Medical Sciences from October 2022 to March 2023. Participants were selected through quota sampling and completed validated tools, including the Student E-Learning Attitude Questionnaire, Cohen's Perceived Stress Scale, and a researcher-designed Ethics in Virtual Education Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SPSS v20, with a significance level set at Results: The mean (±SD) scores were 79.60 ± 11.16 for e-learning attitudes, 28.04 ± 8.15 for perceived stress, and 149.74 ± 16.87 for ethical practice. Attitudes toward e-learning significantly predicted ethical practice in virtual education (β = 0.167, 95% CI: 0.077 to 0.429, Conclusion: Positive attitudes toward e-learning foster students' adherence to ethical standards in virtual education but do not directly impact perceived stress levels. These findings underscore the importance of fostering constructive perceptions of virtual education and promoting ethical literacy to enhance educational quality and student well-being.
