Teaching Psychopharmacology in the Medically Ill: A Problem-Based Learning Card Game for Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry Didactics.

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
introductionOur educational report discusses a unique card game that provides an engaging, and competitive strategy for teaching psychopharmacology in the medically ill. It engages the players and helps them learn how to justify medical decisions in the context of complicated medical comorbidity.
methodsWe describe a problem-based learning approach where learners are presented with randomized diagnoses and complications and are then forced to make prescription decisions for treatment from a limited and randomized supply of medication cards. Each round is facilitated by the teacher, who engages the teams and/or individual players in discussions regarding the rationale and justification of the medication decisions. These treatment plans are scored according to the appropriateness of the medication choice and the process is repeated. DISCUSSION: The game is flexible regarding players' levels of education and has been played by medical students, psychiatry residents, and fellows throughout their years of training. Overall feedback has been positive from facilitators and trainees and the game has been a valuable source of engaging learners in the process of making complex medication decisions in the medically ill.
