Informed Consent in Clinical Training: Perspectives from Medical Students and Faculty in Portugal.
Article in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The student-patient relationship represents the cornerstone of medical education, shaping future doctors' knowledge, skills and attitudes. While most patients allow student involvement in their care, some may express discomfort. Thus, obtaining explicit consent is essential to respect patients' right of autonomy. This study mainly aims to assess the practical application of informed consent by medical students and teachers regarding students' presence and participation in patients' care. An observational cross-sectional study was performed, and an online questionnaire was given to students and teachers at a single medical school, via institutional email. The study included 289 participants, namely 232 students and 57 teachers. While 81% of teachers reported always asking the patient's consent for students' presence, only 28% of students claimed this to be the case. Despite challenges like overcrowding and limited time, involving students in healthcare benefits both students and patients. Moreover, medical ethics education is crucial to foster compassionate care and promote ethical reasoning. The disparities found between teachers' practices and students' perspectives highlight the need to intervene and provide them with an adequate education on ethical values in clinical practice. Strategic interventions at institutional levels are required for a simultaneous high quality of patient care and clinical training.
