3D Visualized Anatomy Model Software for Teaching Acupoints and Related Neurovascular Musculature in Korean Acupoint Practice Classes.
Article in Medical acupuncture, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 integration of new technologies into medical education is transforming the learning landscape, particularly in acupuncture education. The necessity for remote learning due to the pandemic has accelerated the development of digital tools, such as anatomical software, to replace traditional in-person classes. In response to these changes, Dongguk University in Korea has developed AcupointDG, a three-dimensional (3D) visualized anatomy model software designed to enhance the understanding of acupoints and their associated neurovascular musculature. This software provides a comprehensive view of the human body's anatomical structures related to acupuncture points and links to relevant research, aiding students in gaining a realistic and evidence-based understanding of acupuncture. The main features include detailed 3D anatomical representations and direct access to scientific literature through PubMed and Research Information Sharing Service (RISS). Conclusions: The use of this software in the Acupoint and Practice class has resulted in significant educational outcomes, including student publications and presentations at international conferences. Future updates aim to further integrate research trends with anatomical visualization, enhancing the educational experience and professional development of acupuncture students.
