Modified organized ophthalmology pre-internship in China.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMedical pre-internship plays a crucial role in medical education promoting early involvement of students in clinical setting and helping them explore potential interest of specialty. However, there is currently no specifically designed pre-internship curriculum in China. Using ophthalmology as a pilot field, we have set up a modified organized pre-internship curriculum and evaluated its effectiveness and students' feedback in this study.
methodsIn this prospective noncomparative study, 42 junior undergraduate medical students were enrolled in the organized ophthalmology pre-internship. The effects of organized pre-internship on student performance were evaluated by difference of post- to pre-lecture scores by paired
resultsThe difference of post- to pre-lecture scores of all participants was 6.21±2.02 (P<0.0001). The improvement in post- to pre-lecture scores of students with low knowledge level (7.08±1.85) was significantly higher than that of students with high knowledge level (4.81±1.42) (P<0.0001). Gender did not influence student performance. The responses to the questionnaire showed that most of students were more satisfied with the organized pre-internship than traditional pre-internship.
conclusionsThe organized pre-internship significantly improved student performance and satisfaction. Performance improvement in students with low knowledge level was more obvious. Compared to traditional pre-internship, the organized pre-internship showed advantages in improving student performance as well as promoting learning enthusiasm. Instructors played an essential role in the organized pre-internship teaching system.
