Musculoskeletal Clinical Online Cases With a Focus on Anatomy for Preclinical Learners.
Article in MedEdPORTAL : the journal of teaching and learning resources, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: While musculoskeletal disorders are leading causes of medical visits, musculoskeletal education is underrepresented in US medical curricula. Previous studies have demonstrated that undergraduate medical students often fail to demonstrate competency surrounding musculoskeletal disorders. More educational content is needed to support musculoskeletal knowledge in learners. Methods: We developed an online, case-based musculoskeletal module for second-year medical students alongside their standard course material and presented clinical cases with multiple-choice question quizzes regarding the presentation, diagnosis, and anatomic correlation of musculoskeletal conditions. Cases, under 10 minutes each, targeted common, medically important areas of musculoskeletal health. Results: Grades in the required musculoskeletal course were significantly and positively correlated with online module quiz performance. 258 (73%) of 354 students completed at least one quiz, and students completed an average of 14 out of 15 quizzes. Learners who completed more than 50% of the quizzes performed significantly better in the course than those who completed fewer quizzes; this was true for a formative internal course exam ( Discussion: This module represents educational material that has been demonstrated to improve medical student musculoskeletal learning. Additionally, the module could be expanded to address inadequacies in orthopedic education among other students, such as allied health learners.
