Team-based learning (TBL) curriculum combined with video vignettes improves performance of undergraduate medical students on OSCE compared with TBL alone.

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
backgroundClinical practitioners think of frequent causes of diseases first rather than expending resources searching for rare conditions. However, it is important to continue investigating when all common illnesses have been discarded. Undergraduate medical students must acquire skills to listen and ask relevant questions when seeking a potential diagnosis. METHODOLOGY: Our objective was to determine whether team-based learning (TBL) focused on clinical reasoning in the context of rare diseases combined with video vignettes (intervention) improved the clinical and generic skills of students compared with TBL alone (comparator). We followed a single-center quasi-experimental posttest-only design involving fifth-year medical students.
resultsThe intervention group (n = 178) had a significantly higher mean overall score on the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) (12.04 ± 2.54 vs. 11.27 ± 3.16; P = 0.021) and a higher mean percentage score in clinical skills (47.63% vs. 44.63%; P = 0.025) and generic skills (42.99% vs. 40.33%; P = 0.027) than the comparator group (n = 118). Success on the OSCE examination was significantly associated with the intervention (P = 0.002).
conclusionsThe TBL with video vignettes curriculum was associated with better performance of medical students on the OSCE. The concept presented here may be beneficial to other teaching institutions.
