E-portfolio in Learning and Assessment of Community Medicine for Medical Undergraduate Students.
Article in International journal of applied & basic medical research. 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
Background: A portfolio is a specific collection of student work and achievements in various areas. E-portfolio is an electronic collection that serves the purpose of storage and showcase with the ease of access for both students and evaluators. The knowledge and skills regarding immunization in medical students are of utmost importance for the successful implementation and conduction of the Universal Immunization Program in the country. Hence, this study proposed to use e-portfolio for learning and assessment of immunization in medical undergraduates. Aim and Objectives: The aims of this study were as follows: to develop an e-portfolio for learning and assessment in community medicine, to improve the knowledge of immunization schedules of undergraduates using e-portfolio, to improve the vaccination and counseling skills of undergraduates using e-portfolio, and to obtain feedback regarding the e-portfolio from students and faculty. Methodology: This interventional educational study was conducted at a tertiary care medical college including 48 students of Phase III MBBS after informed consent was signed. Prevalidated questionnaire and checklist were used for data collection. Students wrote reflections and uploaded their videos of immunization skills and counseling on the e-portfolio and 5 faculty members assessed the students and provided feedback to students. Feedback on the e-portfolio was taken at the end, and descriptive and qualitative analysis was done. Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the institutional ethics committee. Results: The e-portfolio was found to be effective in showcasing the progress and learning of the students. E-portfolio improved knowledge, skills, self-directed learning, and reflective writing. The competency of immunization improved after the use of e-portfolio ( Conclusions: E-portfolio is user-friendly and effective in imparting and assessing immunization competency. The use of this intervention for other topics is recommended.
