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

objectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of a multimodal teaching method to train emergency residents to use point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in the assessment of shock.

methodsThe study subjects were Emergency Medicine residents at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between January 2023 and December 2023. These residents volunteered for the study and were randomly divided into either the teaching reform (TR) group or the traditional teaching (TT) group. The assessment outcomes of the study included the residents' scores on theoretical tests and practical tests and the residents' satisfaction with and evaluation of the teaching method.

resultsA total of 100 residents participated in this study in either the TR or TT groups. Compared with the TT group, the TR group achieved higher scores on both the theoretical test and the practical assessment (p < 0.05). Similarly, analysis of the questionnaire indicated that the TR group was more satisfied with their training and evaluated it higher than the TT group (p < 0.05).

conclusionIntegrating point-of-care ultrasound with a multimodal teaching method in standardized training for emergency medicine residents could effectively improve the teaching effect and quality, which may provide important value in the emergency teaching of residents.
