Predictors of virtual reality simulation bronchoscopy performance among novice bronchoscopists.

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
introductionSimulation-based training is gradually replacing the classic "apprenticeship" training model. Predictors of better performance of virtual reality simulation bronchoscopy are not clear.
objectiveWe aim to explore the predictors of performance of simulation bronchoscopy among novice bronchoscopists. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a descriptive observational cohort study conducted at King Abdulaziz University Clinical Skills and Simulation Center, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. All participants filled a demographic questionnaire and attended a pre-simulation orientation about the requested tasks. The Simbionix bronchoscopy simulator was used in this study. First, each resident performed three trails of basic scope manipulation task to test hand-eye coordination skills. Thereafter, each resident performed the guided anatomical navigation task to accurately examine as many lung segments as possible. Results and metrics were retrieved from the simulator, and statistical analysis was performed using
resultsFifty-three internal medicine residents participated in this study. Male residents significantly achieved higher score in the basic scope manipulation task than female residents (65% vs 46%,
conclusionSimulation bronchoscopy performance was different between genders, smoking status and future interest in pursuing a procedure-based career. Overall, male residents performed better than female residents in basic scope manipulation. Gender differences in performing simulation bronchoscopy need to be examined in future studies. Tailored educational programs may be needed to fit gender-specific skills and requirements as well as future career interests.
