Enhancing Familiarity and Utility: A Pre-Post Survey Study on Mental Practice Workshop Outcomes.
Article in Journal of medical education and curricular development. 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
objectivesMental practice, a cognitive technique for practicing skills without physical movement, holds promise for enhancing clinical outcomes in emergency medicine. This study investigates its recognition and the impact of a basic workshop on emergency physicians' attitudes toward mental practice.
methodsThis pre-post survey study involved 20 medical professionals who participated in a 2-day workshop. Assessments were conducted before and after the intervention using a structured questionnaire.
resultsInitial findings revealed that 65% of participants were aware of mental practice, and only 10% utilized it in clinical settings. Postworkshop, familiarity, and perceived helpfulness significantly increased from 2.2 to 4.1 and 3.9 to 4.7, respectively, with marked improvements in confidence and the intention to apply these techniques clinically by 100% of the participants.
conclusionThe results suggest that brief educational interventions can substantially influence medical professionals' engagement with mental practice, advocating its inclusion in medical training curricula to enhance procedural skills and patient care.
