From Cadavers to Codes: The Evolution of Anatomy Education Through Digital Technologies.
Review 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 4 papers.
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
This review examines the shift from traditional anatomy education to the integration of advanced digital technologies. With rapid advancements in digital tools, such as 3D models, virtual dissections, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), anatomy education is increasingly adopting digital environments to enhance learning. These tools offer immersive, interactive experiences, supporting active learning and knowledge retention. Mobile technology and cloud computing have further increased accessibility, allowing flexible, self-paced learning. Despite challenges like educator resistance and institutional barriers, the continued innovation and integration of digital tools have the potential to transform anatomy education and improve medical outcomes.
