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

objectiveWith recent widespread advances in laparoscopy, providing education on this subject has become a significant challenge. The aim of this study was to determine the degree of contribution made by surgeons to laparoscopic education through an educational video. MATERIAL AND

methodsA total of 40 volunteer general surgery residents and specialists participated in our study. Before watching the approximately six-minute educational video prepared for laparoscopic appendectomy, the participants were asked to fill out participant information forms and information measurement questionnaire forms. After the video, the participants were asked to fill out the information measurement questionnaire forms a second time; additionally, attitude evaluation forms and education evaluation questionnaire forms were presented to the participants for completion, and statistical analysis was performed. Furthermore, the total watching duration and the number of times the video was paused were recorded.

resultsA total of 40 surgeons participated in the study (75% residents and 25% specialists). When the results of the information determination questionnaire forms filled out by the resident and specialist groups before and after the video were compared, it was observed that the scores of both groups significantly increased after watching the video (p=0.001). A statistical significance was identified between the length of time the video was watched and the education evaluation form scores of the participants (p<0.01). It was observed that the longer the video was watched, the greater the increase in the education evaluation scores. The results of the attitude evaluation forms implied that the video could be produced more professionally.

conclusionAlthough education is an inevitable requirement of laparoscopic surgery, many teaching methods are available. Awareness-enhancing videos prepared on this topic can be efficient in providing laparoscopic education.
