Simulation-based training in dermatologic surgery: a literature review.
Review in Archives of dermatological research, 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
Simulation-based training has been shown to increase confidence and improve technical proficiency in surgical trainees. In this review, we describe the methods of simulation-based training currently being utilized in cutaneous surgery education. PubMed and EMBASE were searched for terms related to dermatologic surgery, education, and simulation. Articles published in English from 2013 onward that discussed simulation-based cutaneous surgery training of dermatology, plastic surgery, or otolaryngology resident physicians were included and summarized. Currently utilized simulation modalities in the training of dermatologic surgeons include skin substitutes, cadavers, and technology-based platforms. While each of these modalities have been shown to enhance trainee confidence and/or skill, head-to-head studies comparing their efficacy and usefulness are limited. Dermatologic surgery training, and therefore patient care, may be enhanced by further incorporation of simulation training. However, further studies are needed to clarify the optimal simulation platforms and delivery.
