Video-Based Tracheostomy Care Education for Medical Students.
Article in OTO open. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Objective: Tracheostomy is a common procedure that requires management by a multidisciplinary team of health care providers across a range of surgical and nonsurgical specialties. Nonsurgical health care providers have demonstrated a lack of knowledge and confidence in tracheostomy care, which improve with tracheostomy education programs. However, tracheostomy care is rarely included in preresidency medical education. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a tracheostomy care video on third-year medical students' knowledge of and confidence in performing tracheostomy care. Methods: Prior to beginning clinical rotations, third-year medical students completed a 10-question tracheostomy care knowledge test (100 points total) and 11-question confidence survey (110 points total). After watching an 18-minute teaching video on tracheostomy care, students repeated the knowledge test and confidence survey. Results: An overall 147 medical students completed the educational module. After they watched the tracheostomy education video, their average score on the knowledge test improved from 57.8 to 88.9 out of 100 ( Discussion: Medical students' knowledge of tracheostomy care and confidence in caring for patients with tracheostomies improved after watching the video. Tracheostomy education should be included in early medical education so that future physicians of various specialties can better care for this patient population. Implications for Practice: Internet-published videos are an accessible educational resource with great potential application to various topics within otolaryngology, including tracheostomy care.
