Medical Students' Opinion of Their Learning Process.
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
Introduction: The opinion of students is of utmost importance to identify areas of improvement in undergraduate studies. Medical schools would use this information to plan actions to ensure that the students achieve the necessary medical knowledge. The aim of this study was to analyse the opinion of medical students about their learning process and to analyse the influence of their experience according to their year of medical degree. Methods: A questionnaire including 21 items, divided into four sections (motivation, theory lectures, hospital internships, and research) and two overall questions, was distributed among eligible 246 students. Each item was scored from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). The opinions of intermediate-year students of medical degree (3rd and 4th) were compared to late-year students (5th and 6th). Results: A total of 148 students answered the questionnaire (60.2% response rate). The mean scores for overall student motivation and teaching quality were 6.15 and 7.10, respectively. The student-teacher interaction and new learning technological tools were considered important for student motivation. The only differences found between the two groups of students were that late-year students wished to become part of a medical team and to learn writing scientific papers more than the intermediate-year students. Conclusions: This questionnaire revealed that the year of career had little influence on the medical students' opinion on their learning process during their undergraduate studies. Late-year students rated highest on being more interested in being part of a medical team and their knowledge on writing scientific articles. The use of new technologies and the student-teacher interaction is key to motivate students.
