Trial reportLa Tunisie medicale2023
Trial report in La Tunisie medicale, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionClinical reasoning (CR) is a core skill taught by medical schools. Clinical reasoning learning sessions (CRL) during hospital internship of externals in pediatrics was recently introduced in Faculty of Medicine of Tunis.
aimTo compare a case based self-directed learning (CBSDL) tool with CRL sessions in two groups of the students assigned to pediatric internship.
methodsWe conducted a randomized trial with draw of two groups: CRL group (students who attended the CRL session) and SDL group (students who received the CBSDL tool). Main judgment criterion was the final score obtained by the student at the test of sequential management problem (SMP). A docimological analysis of SMP test was performed.
resultsThe mean final score in CRL group and SDL group was 12.03±1.44 and 14.05±1.64, respectively (p <0.001). The scores obtained at the different steps of SMP test were significantly higher in SDL group. The difficulty p and discrimination D indices of the SPM test were 0.65 and 0.21, respectively. The agreement between the two correctors was very good since the intra-class correlation coefficient was 0.977. We analyzed the reliability of the test by measuring Cronbach's α coefficient which was 0.955.
conclusionCBSDL tool has allowed students to learn hypothetico-deductive reasoning. However, this tool must be supplemented by direct supervision at hospital internship to support CR.
