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

Learning analytics has been rigorously applied to various forms of e-learning, but not to the evaluation of clinical education podcasts. We created a podcast series using the Anchor by Spotify platform, uploading an episode every 2 weeks starting on March 30, 2021. We examined analytics data using a censoring date of November 1, 2022. Based on 29,747 total plays, average audience retention declined 10%/minute until an inflection point at 2.5 minutes, followed by a steady decline of 1.8%/minute. With a maximum episode length of 17 minutes, we did not identify a limit on learner attention for short-form podcasts.
