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
Introduction: Interprofessional education (IPE) fosters collaboration among healthcare students, preparing them for coordinated, patient-centered care. Geriatric care, requiring multidisciplinary input, offers an ideal framework for interprofessional learning. This study assessed the readiness for interprofessional learning among students of Yenepoya (Deemed to be University) who participated in the geriatric IPE program (GIEP) workshop. Methods: A pre and postintervention study was conducted among undergraduate students from medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, and allied health sciences. Participants completed the 19-item Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS), which measures four domains: teamwork and collaboration, positive professional identity, negative professional identity, and roles and responsibilities. Responses were rated on a five-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics Mann-Whitney Results: Seventy students completed the pre-workshop and 48 completed the post-workshop assessments. The mean total RIPLS score decreased slightly from 72.91 ± 7.84 to 71.19 ± 10.08. Subscale comparisons revealed minor, nonsignificant changes across all domains ( Conclusion: Students exhibited a high baseline readiness for interprofessional learning, reflecting positive attitudes toward teamwork and collaboration. Although no statistically significant improvement was observed following the GIEP workshop, the intervention reinforced interprofessional values. Long-term and integrated IPE initiatives are recommended to strengthen collaborative competencies and measure sustained changes in readiness.
