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

Simulation is an ideal method for procedural training in obstetrics. To maximise training opportunities through simulation, the evaluation of these educational activities should be based on a standardised evidence-based approach. As such, the tools used in the evaluative process should be validated for content and context, as this ensures consistency of approach. It also makes the findings and recommendations acceptable, applicable and credible. More so, the information can be used for planning further learning, assessment of the competency of the trainers and educational governance purposes. In our view, simulation should be used in conjunction with other forms of procedural assessment such as mini-clinical examinations and case-based discussions to translate skills to actual life events. The learners will be able to further consolidate their learning, improve professional skills and feel involved throughout the programme.
