M3: The military medicine module: A focussed competency-based program.
Article in Medical journal, Armed Forces India, 2021. 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
backgroundMilitary medicine is a unique and specific field for the armed forces doctors providing skill-based training on military specific injuries and diseases arising due to the unique occupational conditions. The current study retrospectively studied the planning and implementation of the military medicine module which was carried out with the aim of imparting the requisite skills to military doctors.
methodsThe study was a qualitative research, carried over two years, 2017-2019. The study population included two batches of recently graduated medical doctors about to be commissioned . The methodology included needs assessment and gap analysis which was carried out by consulting experts from the tri services. Feedback was taken by medical education experts from both the batches using surveys, and modifications were done after brainstorming with experts keeping feedback in mind.
resultsThere was an improvement in the rating scores and an improved performance by participants was seen in the competencies.
conclusionIn conclusion the module was developed and implemented keeping in mind the important skills that military physicians need to learn through training as these are not been taught in any educational syllabus. To achieve such skills and capabilities, gap analysis is essential and programs should be implemented keeping scope for modification depending on the feedback after brainstorming. Feedback remains important in development of such modules and hence should be collected anonymously.
