The Impact of Simulated Education and Training on Undergraduate Students' Disaster Evacuation Competencies.
Article in Advances in medical education and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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: The occurrence of disasters in the world is natural, but we must learn how to deal with their occurrence and mitigate their impact on people and property. It is important to understand how to behave during hospital disasters and properly evacuate the affected areas. Simulation-based education and training are effective ways to increase knowledge, skills, awareness, and experience in the event of an internal hospital disaster. Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of simulated education and training in enhancing undergraduate nursing students' disaster evacuation knowledge, skills, and preparedness. Methods: The study utilized a quasi-experimental, single-group pre-and post-test design to assess the impact of simulation training on emergency and disaster preparedness among nursing students. It was conducted in the Simulation Nursing Laboratories at the College of Applied Medical Sciences, Taif University. The sample consisted of 119 undergraduate nursing students, including 60 male students and 59 female students. The Evacuation Disaster Simulation Questionnaire (EDSQ) was used to assess the knowledge and skills of the nursing students. The items cover three key subcategories: time, process, and transportation. Results: The results showed that the mean score of the time in the pre-test group was 1.24±1.49, while it increased to 3.74±1.92 in the post-test. In the Process, the mean before the test is 2.23±1.05 and increased to 3.13±1.17 after the test. Lastly, in transportation, the mean score of the pre-test group was 3.26±1.41, but in the post-test group, the mean score on the scale rose to 4.13±1.28. This indicated an increase in students' understanding and awareness after the lecture and simulation training with a highly significant improvement (P=0.000).The highest mean score regarding evacuation disaster simulation competencies performance and total scores at pre- and post-educational intervention (Time (3.73), Process (3.13), and Transportation (4.12). Moreover, total scores (39.66) for the study group post-intervention program with a highly significant improvement (P= 0.000). Conclusion: We can see the effectiveness and impact of education through simulation on students, indicating an increase in students' knowledge, understanding, and awareness after the lecture and simulation training.
