Investigating the advantages and disadvantages of electronic logbooks for education goals promotion in medical sciences students: A systematic review.
Article in Health science reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background and Aims: Electronic logbook (E-Logbook) is one of the practical software in medical science that serves as an auxiliary tool for comprehensive education, formative evaluation, and student learning documentation in clinical education. E-logbooks are available to people on the Internet without any time or place restrictions. Experts' familiarity with e-logbooks and their advantages and disadvantages can be effective in their better design so professors and students can use their potential benefits. Therefore, this study examines the advantages and disadvantages of an e-logbook. Methods: This systematic review was conducted until June 13, 2022, by searching relevant keywords such as logbook, e-logbook, and medical students in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. Data were extracted using the data extraction form. The contents of the studies were analyzed based on the study's aim. The results of the analyses were presented in the form of descriptive statistics (tables and figures). Results: Out of 365 retrieved studies, 13 were selected to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of e-logbooks. Most studies were conducted in Pakistan ( Conclusion: According to the results, e-logbooks can improve clinical education, provide feedback to people, control the achievement of educational goals, and increase professor-student interaction. Hence, it is recommended to address their disadvantages and barriers to improve the quality of students' performance.
