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

backgroundThe Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV‑2) pandemic has significantly changed the education of medical students. Due to the contact restrictions and the associated requirement for distance learning, digital teaching formats had to be implemented within a short period of time. The aim of our work was to analyze student evaluation data for virtual teaching in otorhinolaryngology (ORL) during the SARS-CoV‑2 pandemic and to compare the data with previously obtained evaluation data under face-to-face conditions. MATERIALS AND

methodsEvaluation data for the block practical courses in winter semester 2020/21 and summer semester 2021, which were carried out in a virtual format with a short face-to-face phase as well as those for the block practical courses from summer semester 2018 to winter semester 2019/20, which had been performed completely in a conventional face-to-face format, were analyzed. The anonymous survey of the students focused on various aspects of the courses such as organization, didactics and learning atmosphere.

resultsOf 16 surveyed categories, 14 (87.5%) showed significantly better evaluation results for the virtual courses compared to the courses carried out previously under face-to-face conditions. This very positive assessment of the digital teaching offer showed no significant change during the course of the pandemic over the period of two semesters.

conclusionsOur data show a high acceptance of digital teaching in ORL for students. Even though essential components of the medical education such as teaching on the patient and clinical-practical skills can still only be realized in a face-to-face format, our data suggest that digital elements could also play a role in medical education after the SARS-CoV‑2 pandemic.
