An Escape Room to Teach First- and Second-Year Medical Students Nephrology.
Article in Medical science educator, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
An escape room is a team-based activity that requires players to solve a series of puzzles to complete a story and "break out" of a room. It has recently gained traction in medical education for its ability to interactively and effectively present learning objectives. This was a prospective educational study that describes the successful application of a nephrology themed escape room for first- and second-year medical students. Compared to pre-escape room participation, the 52 students demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in self-reported knowledge for renal physiology ( Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40670-023-01917-6.
