A Primer on the Role of iPhone Apps in Medical and Radiology Education and How to Develop Them.
Review in Journal of medical education and curricular development. 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
Among the numerous innovations implemented in medical education since the beginning of the 21st century, small-group learning experiences have worked well for modern students and the application of computer technology provided access to thousands of lectures, images, and slides via the internet. This has helped to build an electronic foundation on which further educational adaptations have arisen in the current era, coupled with the altered communications landscape represented by Apple's introduction of the iPhone and Google's subsequent entrance onto the playing field. With the advent of smartphone applications (apps), education has taken on an even more personalized approach. Data show that the use of educational apps has been embraced by today's nursing and medical students, notably including radiology students. We survey recent research on the use and desirability of medical apps and offer practical tips for those ready to embark on developing medical, particularly radiology, educational apps including how to assess and hone them for optimal use.
