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

Background: The assessment of learners is a fundamental element in medical science curricula. The Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS) exam is a valuable way to assess clinical skills. The present study aimed to assess the clinical skills of operating room students of Neyshabur University of Medical Sciences, Iran, using the DOPS exam, and determine the effect of the exam on the learning and satisfaction of the learners. Materials and Methods: The current study was a semi-experimental study that used a single-group posttest study design. The statistical sample included 30 operating room students. The 5 skills were selected for assessment and the assessment checklist was designed by the researcher and approved by the expert panel. Moreover, 3 researcher-made questionnaires were used to examine the students' skills and opinions regarding facilitating learning and their satisfaction with the DOPS examination. Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, and Wilcoxon tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the scores of the students in the first and second examinations (z = -4.243, Conclusions: Although the DOPS examination is one of the clinical assessment methods for learners, it can be used as an instructional tool in the learning process.
