Resources for clinical learning environment orientation.
Review in Medical education online, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionEach clinical learning environment (CLE) requires learners to navigate a different set of complex interactions to engage in safe patient care while learning from real patients. Orientation forms the foundation for learning, yet CLE models in the literature are primarily written for an educator audience and practical advice for orienting learners to a new CLE is limited. To address this gap, we designed resources to support both supervisors and learners in the orientation process. MATERIALS/
methodsWe reviewed the CLE literature to select critical content for orientation and interviewed high performing residents to identify their best practices. We synthesized the literature and resident interviews into a visually appealing and easy to digest infographic designed to simultaneously remind teachers of the critical areas to cover in orientation and empower learners to ask about them. We integrated these principles into an online module for Graduate Medical Education onboarding and surveyed users about how well they could meet the module learning objectives.
resultsWe organized the literature review and resident advice regarding questions learners should ask about a new CLE into the typical question categories (why, who, what, when, where, and how) and described strategies for orientation to each category. Our infographic has been incorporated into CLE orientation for multiple types of learners at our institution. After completing the orientation module, 112/124(90%) residents indicated that they could, 'Orient yourself or a learner to a clinical learning environment using orientation questions' moderately to extremely well. DISCUSSION: We developed resources that can be used by educators to create orientation materials and by learners to ensure they understand important features, resources, and expectations in a new CLE. Because the foundational principles of CLE apply to a variety of clinical settings and learner types, the resources may be broadly applicable.
