1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThere are few curriculum materials designed to provide training and support for peer tutors to become effective clinical skills teachers. We designed the Clinical Skills Tutoring Program (CSTP) curriculum to guide tutors to help their students reflect on clinical skills performance, create an individualized learning plan, and engage in improvement based on feedback to achieve clinical skills competencies.

methodsCurriculum content was delivered through an in-person training session, formal curriculum written content, online resources, and longitudinal support from faculty directors. Tutors (fourth-year medical students) received surveys to evaluate the in-person training session, curriculum resources, and overall program experience. Student participants (medical students of any year) completed a survey to rate their satisfaction in working with their tutors.

resultsThere were 12 tutors in cohort 1 and 18 tutors in cohort 2. Survey response rates ranged from 50% to 70% among tutors. The tutors were satisfied with the in-person training session, program experience, curriculum resources, support from directors, development of learning goals with the student, and clinical skills practice with the student (mean Likert ratings greater than 4 out of 5). Student participants were satisfied with their experience creating learning goals and receiving feedback from their tutors. DISCUSSION: The tutor curriculum fills a gap by training and supporting tutors before and during their work with students needing further resources and remediation in one or more clinical skills domains. The curriculum can be implemented and further adapted by other tutoring programs locally and nationally.
