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

Before medical professionals are permitted to use a medical device, they first must be instructed in its use. However, it is well known that this method is hazardous for both the staff and the patients due to its inadequate quality. In order to address this problem, we investigated the potential of digital technologies for enhancing medical device training. For this, we designed and implemented several diverse training methods: (1) conventional training by a medical instructor, (2) video-based training, (3) mobile application training on a tablet, (4) virtual reality training, and (5) augmented reality training. Since each method provides identical training content to the user, we compared the resulting learning outcomes between the methods. The findings indicate that virtual and augmented reality training is superior to conventional training. These digital technologies offer the opportunity to reduce the burden on healthcare professionals and increase patient safety.
