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

backgroundTechnological change in healthcare and the digital transformation of teaching require innovations in student teaching in medicine. New technologies are needed to enable the delivery and use of diverse teaching and learning formats by educational institutions independent of time and place. The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of different multidimensional formats in student teaching in surgical ENT medical anatomy. MATERIALS AND

methodsDuring the summer semester 2022 and winter semester 2022/2023, the digital teaching and learning program was expanded by testing different visualization formats (3D glasses, cardboards, or VR glasses) with students in the context of a highly standardized surgical procedure, namely cochlear implantation. A pre- and post-intervention knowledge assessment was carried out in all groups, followed by an evaluation.

resultsOf 183 students, 91 students fully participated in the study. The post-intervention knowledge assessment showed a significant increase in correct answers regardless of visualization format. In a direct comparison, the operating room (OR) group answered correctly significantly more often than the cardboard group (p = 0.0424). The majority of students would like to see 3D teaching as an integral part of the teaching program (87.9%) and more streaming of live surgeries (93.4%). They see the use of the various technologies as a very good addition to conventional surgical teaching (72.5%), as good visualization (89%) increases retention (74.7%) and motivation (81.3%).

conclusionApplication and use of new visualization technologies in everyday clinical practice is a promising approach to expanding student training. Mobile, interactive, and personalized technical formats can be adapted to the learning behavior of students. Last but not least, the use of new media influences learning motivation. An expansion of digital teaching and learning formats can be expressly recommended on the basis of this study.
