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

With the trend of economic globalization, innovation and entrepreneurship have become critical strategies for national development. College students, particularly, are a primary focus for cultivating awareness of innovation and entrepreneurship, which is essential for implementing national development strategies. The institution in eastern China has developed a program aimed at fostering medical innovation and entrepreneurship through the Biodesign framework. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of this training system by surveying 479 medical students using a questionnaire designed around three stages: "identify," "invent," and "implement". Factor analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, and T-tests were employed to assess the effectiveness and development pathways of the Biodesign-based cultivation of medical innovation and entrepreneurship talents. The results indicate significant improvements in students' abilities in demand identification, demand screening, concept generation, concept selection, strategic identification, and business planning (p < 0.001), with the most notable improvement in demand identification (t = 6.383). Additionally, students have achieved notable success in writing and publishing papers and patents, as well as securing provincial and national-level awards. Particularly remarkable were the achievements in student competitions, with the number of national-level awards rising from 32 in 2019 to 66 in 2023. In conclusion, the Biodesign-based cultivation model for medical innovation and entrepreneurship has proven effective and merits further promotion among medical students.
