An Illustration is Worth Ten Thousand Words: An Extraordinary Approach to Presenting Information Through Infographics.
Article in Medical science educator, 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
Introduction: Infographics summarise concepts visually for quick reference. Four infographics, inspired by articles on simulation-based education for ophthalmologists, were created to simplify complex ideas. The study evaluated the infographics' effectiveness aligning with published recommendations to make simulation education user-friendly and practical, supporting busy ophthalmologist educators in designing and facilitating simulation training sessions. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study evaluated the infographics created by the second author, focussing on their quality, visual appeal, and effectiveness in conveying the key messages to be used for microlearning and Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT). An evidence-based electronic questionnaire was used to evaluate design principles of effective infographics. The same questions concerning each infographic were presented to ophthalmologist educators and graphic designers. Results: Feedback informed recommendations for infographics to define a target audience, highlight the heading, and ensure a clear narrative with an identifiable key message. Content should simplify complex concepts and be applicable to teaching. Include accessible references, limited colours and fonts, and logical alignment prioritising key elements. Use simple imagery and effective charts. Add a digital object identifier (DOI) for citation and discovery. Infographics can be shared via journals and social media, or used as Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT) tools to support professional development and simulation teaching preparation. Conclusion: Effectively designed infographics as pragmatic focused graphic storytelling tools can support clinical educators in their daily simulation-based teaching activities and JiTT. This article provides tips on designing infographics for this purpose.
