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

Background: Traditional Case-Based Learning (CBL) methods in clinical medical education are often hindered by limitations in scalability and student engagement. In response, interactive video-based CBL integrates decision tree scenarios with interactive technology, offering a novel approach to enhance students' clinical reasoning and learning outcomes. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an interactive video-based CBL teaching method in improving clinical knowledge, thinking ability, course experience and satisfaction among undergraduate medical students. Methods: A single-center, single-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 64 fourth-year clinical medicine undergraduates, who were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (interactive video-based CBL, Results: Sixty-two students completed the study. The intervention group showed significant improvement in post-intervention basic knowledge test scores compared to both their baseline ( Conclusion: Interactive video-based CBL significantly enhances basic knowledge, critical thinking, and students' course experience and satisfaction compared to traditional CBL, highlighting its potential as an innovative teaching method in clinical medical education. Further research is needed to explore its long-term impacts and optimize its application for fostering evidence-based thinking.
