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

purposeTo describe the experience of online and practical medical teaching in the outpatient hemato-oncological primary care setting and to analyze challenges and chances for students and teachers in specialized outpatient institutions.

methodsThe study involving medical students of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU) in their 6th-7th semester evaluates content and didactic methodology of online teaching seminars, bed-side clerkships and mentoring regarding one selected oncological center. The data was collected via questionnaires using Likert-scaled items.

resultsIn one outpatient cancer center a total of 279 students attended the online lessons (2020-2023). 102 evaluations were collected, and all aspects of teaching of the online seminars and clerkship were rated very well (mean score of 1.2 on the item "overall evaluation" with a small range of 1.0-1.3, n = 102). Criticism was mainly leveled at technical issues (n = 16). The evaluations (n = 10) of the students attending a one-day bed side teaching revealed high interest in learning the practice in the outpatient setting. 90% stated an improvement in understanding of outpatient practice as well as intersectoral processes due to the one-day bedside teaching and favored an integration of this new teaching format into the regular medical curriculum. Two students applied for a four-week internship and six chose a mentorship in hematology-oncology, resulting in four medical thesis projects in this field.

conclusionIncreased participation of outpatient centers in medical education improved knowledge on outpatient medicine and interprofessional care and generated interest in the field of oncology. Outpatient cancer specialists should be more involved in the curriculum of medical students.
