Student's perception of three-dimensional atlas interactive system beside traditional cadaveric dissection in learning human anatomy.

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
purposeAs digital education is encroaching on the traditional method, it is important to get, the feedback of medical students. The current study has been proposed to investigate the perception of first-year MBBS students, regarding the use of 3D atlas for gross anatomy study as adjunct along with cadaveric dissection.
methodsThe feedback of 91 first-year MBBS students, regarding the incorporation of a 3D atlas in the dissection lab along with traditional cadaveric dissection was collected. A self-structured questionnaire, along with a consent form, was made available via Google forms and the responses were analysed.
results97% of students agreed that the orientation and understanding of different anatomical structures improved for dissection with 3D atlas usage along with cadaveric dissection and enhanced peer discussion. The majority of students agreed that the usage of the 3D atlas created enthusiasm and motivation toward anatomy learning and encouraged them to participate actively in the lab. Some suggestions by the students like the free availability of the app for anywhere and anytime usage, lesser number of students for each batch, and the conduction of substage viva on a 3D atlas, etc. may be tailored as per institutional infrastructure.
conclusionsThe results of the study validate that the use of a 3D atlas along with dissection is an effective method of teaching anatomy. The current analysis will provide feedback for future decisions to incorporate 3D learning tools for gross anatomy in dissection labs. The authors believe that it is a useful tool that merits inclusion in anatomy.
