Impact of Medical Scribe Experiences on Subsequent Medical Student Learning.
Article in Medical science educator, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionMany US pre-health professional students prepare for applying to medical training by transcribing clinician-patient encounters. Scant literature of the effects of scribing experiences before starting medical training exists. We conducted a study to investigate student perspectives about medical scribing's educational impact on clinical skill development.
methodsUsing a mixed-methods approach, medical and physician assistant students were surveyed and interviewed about clinical experiences and confidence before entering medical training, and the impact of scribing on clinical skills learning. Thematic analysis revealed salient themes in participants' perspectives on the scribing experience.
resultsA total of 214 (33%) of the 658 students completed the survey; 66 (31%) had scribing experience. Scribes were more confident ( DISCUSSION: Findings suggest that the scribing experience affects confidence and perceived skills, particularly clinical note writing. Future research could explore the impact on clinical skill development through comparative performance-based assessment.
conclusionMeasuring the impact of scribing before entry to medical/physician assistant school on clinical skill development could provide directives for best approaches to clinical skills education in health professionals training.
