Exploring the Knowledge and Utilization of Video-Based Surgical Learning Among Medical Students in a Teaching Hospital in Nigeria: A Mixed-Methods Study.
Article in Journal of medical education and curricular development. 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
backgroundThe incorporation of video-based resources into medical education has become common practice in many middle- and high-income countries. This study aimed to assess the knowledge, usage, and receptivity of video-based learning among medical students in a resource-limited setting in Nigeria.
methodsA mixed-method approach was utilized, involving both quantitative and qualitative data collection among fourth, fifth, and sixth-year medical students. Sampling was conducted via simple random selection, and data were collected using questionnaires and focus group discussions. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 for descriptive statistics, while thematic coding was applied to qualitative data using NVivo.
resultsA majority (79%) were aware of video-based learning, with YouTube being the most used platform. However, barriers such as high data cost (79.7%) and poor internet connectivity (77.2%) limited utilization. Qualitative analysis highlighted the value of flexible, engaging content in learning and restructuring of existing curriculum to maximize the benefits of videos but raised concerns about standardization, patient privacy, and infrastructure.
conclusionAlthough students recognize the effectiveness of video-based learning, its integration into medical curricula requires addressing barriers such as internet access and content quality. Institutional support is critical for maximizing its potential.
