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.

Pearson's correlation test and multivariable linear regression were carried out to evaluate the relationship between EI and stress coping strategies. Results: The overall mean EI score for undergraduate students (141.6 ± 38.49) was higher compared with that of qualified dentists (137.6 ± 40.96; Conclusion: EI demonstrated significant associations with specific coping domains among dental professionals.
