Development of a Senior Medical Student Robotic Surgery Training Elective.
Article in Journal of medical education and curricular development. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07618429 (Control Location Using Two Commands), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
As robotic surgery has become more widespread, early exposure to the robotic platform is becoming increasingly important, not only to graduate medical education, but also for medical students pursuing surgical residency. In an effort to orient students to robotic technology and decrease the learning curve for what is likely to become an integral part of residency training, we created a formal, elective robotic surgery curriculum for senior medical students. Throughout this 2-week fourth year rotation, students completed online training modules and assessment; mastered exercises on the simulator system related to the console, camera, energy, dexterity, and suturing skills; attended didactics; utilized the dual console during one-on-one simulation lab sessions with attending robotic surgery experts; and translated new skills to biotissue anastomoses as well as bedside-assisting in the operating room. During cases, students were able to have more meaningful observation experiences, recognizing the significance of various robotic approaches employed and utilization of specific instruments. Future aims of this rotation will assess student experience as it impacts readiness for surgical residency.
