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

Palliative care (PC) longitudinal curricula are increasingly being recognized as important in Undergraduate Medical Education (UME). They are however, not yet commonplace, and where they do exist may be implemented without a systematic, prospective approach to curriculum evaluation. This paper describes an implementation of a new longitudinal curriculum at the Perelman School of Medicine (PSOM) at the University of Pennsylvania. We used the Context Input Process Product (CIPP) model, a holistic evaluation model, to assess the local environment, design the curriculum, guide the improvement process, and evaluate outcomes. Comprehensive models such as CIPP provide a more robust approach to curriculum evaluation than outcomes-only models and may be of use to other programs who are implementing new curricula or improving upon existing programs.
