Anonymous Audience Response Technology in Image-Based Quiz (IBQ) Neuropathology Lecture for Undergraduate Pre-clinical Medical Students: a Comparison with Traditional Lectures.
Article in Medical science educator, 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
Pathology teaching, an intensively image loaded discipline, poses a significant challenge in its delivery. A lot of effort has been placed into sourcing teaching methods that could effectively enhance students' understanding and knowledge retention in this discipline. We describe for the first time in the literature the use of an image-based quiz (IBQ) to deliver a neuropathology lecture. The participating medical students were randomised into either the study group (IBQ) or the control group (traditional lecture, TL). The students were asked to complete the pre- and post-multiple choice question (MCQ) test before and after attending either of the allocated interventions. In the IBQ group, the students were presented with image-based quizzes, and answers to the quizzes were projected in real-time on screen. The students in the TL group were given the usual, traditional lecture. A total of 75 third-year medical students participated in this study. The participants were recruited from third-year medical students representing two different academic years. There was no significant difference in the pre- and post-MCQ scores between the IBQ and TL groups. However, a significant improvement in the mean scores for the pre- and post-MCQ results in both the study (
