Indian medical student perspectives on online mode of education.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Purpose: The coronavirus pandemic has led to drastic changes in the education system globally. The medical education curriculum has also undergone a significant drift from traditional or physical classes to online classes. The study aims to explore the viewpoints of the Indian medical students toward online classes, their ramifications, and suggestions for improvement. Methods: The self-administered online questionnaire using the Google form was developed, validated, and circulated among students of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi. The data of the survey were systematically analyzed by descriptive statistics. Results: A total of 223 students filled the Google form. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 171 students were finalized, and the analysis was done. The data suggested that 49.7% of the participants were facing technical glitches, poor Internet connectivity being the commonest. Eye straining (56.7%) was the major physical health hazard, whereas lack of concentration (53.8%) was the major psychological issue reported by the students. The major advantage of online classes reported was its accessibility (93%) at any time and place, whereas students also reported that the traditional learning method is more interactive and motivating (72.5%). Overall, 72.5% of the students wanted to continue both modes of education after the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Conclusion: As per the analysis of the results, it is concluded that, since both online and offline modes of education have advantages and disadvantages, henceforth, mixed or blended method of learning is the best form of learning medical science.
