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

Indigenous Elders in Residence programs are a leading practice in mentorship and Indigenize the academy by centering Indigenous knowledges and knowledge holders. Higher education institutions worldwide grew alongside colonial exploitation leading to imperialist institutions that aim to delegitimize diverse ways of knowing to consolidate power. Support mechanisms are needed to shift hegemonic systems and center Indigenous knowledges as part of an expanded educational system. The purpose of this manuscript is to describe the planning, design and implementation activities of an Elders in Residence program within a prestigious university. Findings include new approaches to starting the conversation between Elders and participants, incorporating traditional ways within mentorship relationships and overcoming barriers to implementation through increased engagement, sustainability and evaluation to contribute to a more liberated educational system.
