The effect of training in different subjects on improving residents' knowledge and their satisfaction with educational methods - a study in Iran.
Article in BMC medical education, 2025. 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
backgroundA resident or assistant is a qualified physician who usually practices medicine in a hospital or clinic under the direct or indirect supervision of a physician who specializes in that area. In addition to being learners, they are also responsible for patient care. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of training in different subjects on the improvement of residents' knowledge and their satisfaction with each of the educational methods used in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
methodsThis quasi-experimental intervention study was conducted in 2023 on 90 residents who had completed their training in the ICU. Every month, a group of three residents visited Rasoul -Akram Hospital for rotation. This one-month rotation was divided into 3 periods of 10 days in three different ICUs. Four educational methods were used over a period of 5 months. An initial test was given to each group at the beginning of the training course. Each month, in addition to the scientific and skills training given in the morning sessions and during the visits, four training sessions were given weekly, and at the end of the rotation each group was tested again. The data were analyzed using SPSS (version 25).
resultsThe mean scores of the residents improved after the training course, which was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The highest and lowest levels of resident satisfaction with educational methods were associated with training during the visit (3.34) and in the morning (2.23). There was a significant difference between gender and mean residents score in pharmacokinetics and principles of ultrasound (P < 0.05). There was also a significant difference between age and average residents score in pharmacokinetics, principles of ultrasound and principles of sepsis diagnosis (P < 0.05).
conclusionsResidents were more satisfied with training during the visit. It is recommended that the educational sessions and training during the visit are in line with the educational goals and objectives. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: N/A. This study is not a clinical trial.
