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

introductionThe teaching methods used in medical science are constantly evolving. To identify the involvement of students in their training, a study of their evaluation of the different teaching methods is essential.

aimTo evaluate the different teaching methods offered by the faculty of dental medicine of Monastir by students.

methodsA descriptive and qualitative study was conducted among students in the 6th year of the faculty during the academic year 2020/2021. The data were collected through a questionnaire written in french evaluating the teaching methods. A focus group of ten persons was led to understand better student's opinions.

resultsAmong the 240 enrolled students, 161 responded to the questionnaire. They considered themselves as fully (18.6%) or partially (66.4%) active learners. However, 67.1% of them judged their FMDM training below their expectations. Clinical education is the teaching method most appreciated by students (46.7%) followed by practical work (24.8) and lecture note (15.5%).

conclusionThis study showed that students are interested in studying dentistry. However, they criticize the teaching methods used which present a certain passivity.
