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

The global opioid epidemic remains a critical public health challenge, highlighting the urgent need to equip medical students with the skills and adequate attitudes to manage opioid overdose effectively. A literature search identified 24 articles in 18 medical schools with training programs for opioid overdose response. Those training programs varied in format, with some including practical sessions and others not. The most common assessment tools were pre-surveys and post-surveys which evaluated objective knowledge about and subjective attitudes toward opioid overdose. The findings indicate that those trainings, whether conducted in person or online and being elective or mandatory, significantly enhanced medical students' knowledge and self-reported competency in managing opioid overdoses. Further, some studies reported a reduction in the stigma associated with opioid use disorder.
