The Evaluation of the Distance Learning Combining Webinars and Virtual Simulations for Senior Nursing Students during the COVID-19 Period.
Article in Clinical simulation in nursing, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Background: The outbreak of COVID-19 has forced many schools to adopt distance teaching. This study developed a distance learning program that combines webinars and virtual simulations to meet students' learning needs. Methods: A descriptive and quasi-experimental design was used. Thirty-five students participated in this distance learning program. Toward the middle and the end of the webinars, computer-based examinations were conducted to assess students' theoretical knowledge. The Clinical Thinking Ability Scale was administered before and after virtual simulation. Academic Self-efficacy, Student Engagement, and Students' Satisfaction Scales were administered after completing the learning program. Results: The students obtained high scores on the theoretical knowledge examinations and virtual simulation scenarios. The virtual simulation led to an improvement in clinical thinking ability. Students displayed high levels of academic self-efficacy and student engagement and expressed high satisfaction with this program. Moreover, there were significant differences between genders in learning behavior self-efficacy, and learning effectiveness. Conclusion: This distance learning program could meet the learning requirements of senior nursing students, in a flexible manner, in a safe environment during the COVID-19 outbreak.
