Virtual postgraduate orthopaedic practical examination: a pilot model.
Article in Postgraduate medical journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the delivery of medical education, training and examination schedule across the world both at undergraduate and at postgraduate (PG) levels. The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 outbreak has resulted in the cancellation of traditional in-person meetings and clinical examination assessments, learning and education activities because of concern of viral transmission. Various medical universities, Royal Medical and Surgical Colleges in the UK have suspended delivery of qualifying examinations until they can be resumed safely with updated social distancing guidelines. This article evaluates the role and the possibility of virtual PG practical examination template based on authors' own recent experience of conducting successful virtual practical PG orthopaedic qualifying examinations during the COVID-19 pandemic in New Delhi, India. Advances in telecommunication technology can enable academic institution and orthopaedic educators to develop such a model and act as a blueprint for the future.
