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

Introduction: There is little research on the efficacy of flipped classroom (FC) models of learning in formal orthopaedic didactic curricula. The primary aim of this study was to compare resident Orthopaedic In-Training Examination (OITE) scores before and after implementation of an FC curriculum at a single academic institution. Methods: An FC didactic model consisting of 3 hour-long weekly sessions focusing on highly tested topics was implemented for the start of the 2021 to 2022 academic year. The curriculum was based on the Orthobullets PASS curriculum. The OITE scores were measured 3 years before and 3 years after the implementation of the novel curriculum. Results: Mean in-training scores as a program against national peers increased from the 29th percentile precurriculum implementation to 75th percentile postcurriculum implementation (p < 0.001). Conclusion: At a single academic institution, average OITE scores increased significantly after implementation of an FC model. Consideration should be given to changing traditional lecture-based curricula to models that more effectively engage resident learners. Level of Evidence: Level III: Retrospective Cohort Study.
