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

backgroundVideo content has become an increasingly valuable tool in medical education, particularly for teaching hands-on skills like sonography and clinical examination. This study evaluates the satisfaction and content of sonography and clinical examination videos on the AMBOSS platform, a prominent medical education resource in Germany.

objectiveThe goal of this study was to compare how effective and well-received sonography and clinical examination videos are on the AMBOSS platform. The study looked at aspects such as the medical and technical quality of the videos, their usefulness for learning, and overall user satisfaction.

methodsEighteen instructional videos were chosen and made accessible on the AMBOSS platform, grouped into sonography (n = 9) and clinical examination (n = 9) categories. Users were asked to voluntarily and anonymously fill out a questionnaire evaluating the videos. Over 49.5 months, data from 1,643,274 video views and 936 completed questionnaires were gathered.

resultsClinical examination videos were watched significantly more often than sonography videos (86 vs. 14%). Both video types were highly rated in terms of medical and technical quality. However, sonography videos were judged superior in technical quality and clarity, whereas clinical examination videos were preferred for their medical quality and practical application. Feedback from users indicated a desire for more detailed annotations and clearer explanations.

conclusionThe findings underline the crucial role of video resources in medical education, particularly in teaching practical skills. To improve educational outcomes, it is important to tailor content to the specific needs of medical students and professionals, incorporate user feedback, and take advantage of technological advancements.
