Presentation of preclinical gastrointestinal anatomy via laparoscopic simulation.
Article in Clinical anatomy (New York, N.Y.), 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
In this report, the authors examine the integration of teaching anatomical science with clinical implications in minimally invasive surgery. The authors hypothesized that implementation of integrated laparoscopic simulation during undergraduate medical education would improve student learning of anatomical structures from in situ, laparoscopic orientations; and subsequently improve student preparation for clinical rotations and clerkships. During the fall of 2020 and 2021, 260 (130 students/year) second year medical students at the University of Nebraska Medical Center participated in a six-week gastrointestinal curriculum. Following a traditional anatomy dissection experience, students completed a laparoscopic event consisting of narrated laparoscopic videos and hands-on laparoscopic simulation. To examine the integrated curricular event, outcome measures focused on technical performance using grasping forceps, anatomical knowledge, and perception of the educational innovation. Outcomes were analyzed via timed performance and a pre and post assessment that was designed to assess student anatomical knowledge and perception. Completion of the technical performance assessment ranged from 1 min, 17 s to 6 min. Student knowledge of anatomical structures from in situ, laparoscopic orientations following the laparoscopic simulation sessions was significantly improved (53.3% pre vs 81.0% post), and almost all students (98.9%) agreed that the simulation sessions improved their understanding of laparoscopic anatomy and procedures. This report demonstrates the implementation of a multidisciplinary, integrated simulation that satisfied basic science anatomy teaching objectives, while enhancing student enthusiasm for the content. Future studies will examine the subsequent impact of the innovation on student preparedness for clinical rotations and clerkships.
