Attendance Improves Student Electrocardiography Interpretation Skills Using the Flipped Classroom Format.
Article in Medical science educator, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The implementation of classroom capture and casting technologies has changed how content can be accessed. Students can access live, streaming, and/or recorded formats of material. Broadening this accessibility has, in turn, introduced flexibility for both the learner and the instructor. This flexibility has impacted the necessity of attendance to access classroom-delivered content. There are many reports that investigate the changing attendance climate as well as the potential impact of attendance on student outcomes. Here we investigated the impact of attending classroom activities on student performance with two common content delivery methods in an undergraduate, pre-clinical cardiology course. Electrocardiography (ECG) interpretation was taught using a flipped classroom format which allowed for the practice of interpretive skills with faculty guidance. Other components of the course related to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cardiovascular disease were delivered using a lecture-based format. The results demonstrate that attendees outperform their classmates in the ability to interpret ECGs and related content. However, the attending student does not appear to have a performance advantage when content is delivered by lecture. The results provide evidence for students to prioritize their time when making decisions about attendance, based on teaching modality, when given a choice. Further, the information can guide curricular change and help colleges and programs identify curricular activities that have a clear attendance benefit for students.
