Perception of undergraduate medical students regarding "Reel-Making" as an innovative learning method in ophthalmology: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC medical education, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe perceptions and learning methods among students have been rapidly changing over the past few years, and thus, there is a need for innovative teaching-learning methods to train the Indian Medical Graduates in the present day.
objectivesThe study aimed to assess undergraduate medical students' perception of reel-making as an innovative teaching-learning method in ophthalmology. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted among third-year MBBS students attending ophthalmology clinics in a private medical college in South India in July-August 2024. A total of 64 students were assigned to make educational reels about cataract and myopia awareness for the general public. Their perception and experience of this innovative learning method are collected from students using a pre-validated questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale for 10 questions collected through an online survey. Data was analyzed by chi square, independent t-test and descriptive analysis.
results52 out of 64 (81.25%) students completed the survey. 59.6% agreed that the reel-making activity evoked more interest in learning, 43.3% strongly agreed that it was a fascinating activity, 50% strongly agreed that it perked their interest, 44.2% strongly agreed that they liked the idea of innovative learning, and 46.2% strongly felt they would recommend this method to others. Many students used the word "fun" when describing their experience.
conclusionsInnovative teaching through reel-making activity was not only found to spark interest but was also reported to be an enjoyable learning experience among students, and thus could be used as a useful innovative method in medical education. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
