Teaching Medical Students to Use Supercomputers: A Personal Reflection.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
At the "Kick Off" meeting for CompBioMed (compbiomed.eu), which was first funded in October 2016, I had no idea that one single sentence ("I wish I could teach this to medical students") would lead to a dedicated program of work to engage the clinicians and biomedical researchers of the future with supercomputing. This program of work which, within the CompBiomed Centre of Excellence, we have been calling "the CompBioMed Education and Training Programme," is a holistic endeavor that has been developed by and continues to be delivered with the expertise and support from experimental researchers, computer scientists, clinicians, HPC centers, and industrial partners within or associated with CompBioMed. The original description of the initial educational approach to training has previously been published (Townsend-Nicholson Interface Focus 10:20200003, 2020). In this chapter, I describe the refinements to the program and its delivery, emphasizing the highs and lows of delivering this program over the past 6 years. I conclude with suggestions for feasible measures that I believe will help overcome the barriers and challenges we have encountered in bringing a community of users with little familiarity of computing beyond the desktop to the petascale and beyond.
