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

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Background To provide the reliable and immediate feedback on the medical students' professionalism during the OSCE, we developed a modified Medical Students' professionalism assessment scale (MSPAS) which is relevant in the history taking and physical examination OSCE stations. Methods We developed two sets of questionnaires, Medical Students' Professionalism Assessment Scale- History taking (MSPAS-H) and Medical Students' Professionalism Assessment Scale- Physical Examination (MSPAS-PE).The Cronbach's alpha correlation coefficient was calculated to determine the internal consistency and exploratory factor analysis was carried out. Results The Content validity index was calculated by using the expert's rating on relevance and all the 12 items in the MSPAS had above 0.85 of CVI. Reverse scoring was required for item No 4 (MSPAS-H) and item No 5 (MSPAS-PE). The Cronbach's alpha was calculated for reliability and found to have 0.87 for MSPAS-H and 0.92 for MSPAS-PE. Discussion All the 6 items in the history taking and 6 items in the physical examination were loaded in each scale with the factor loading of 0.5 and above for all the items. This MSPAS is short and simple scale, it can be completed in a short time period if the simulated patients are provided the proper training on this assessment.
