Enhancing Practical Skills in Medical Education: Evaluating the Efficacy of Virtual Simulation Teaching Through Kolb's Experiential Learning Model.
Article in Advances in medical education and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objective: This study examines the efficacy of virtual simulation pedagogy grounded in Kolb's experiential learning model to enhance clinical practice skills and learning experiences among medical undergraduates. Methods: A cohort of 527 medical undergraduates were randomly assigned to a traditional teaching group (N = 264) or a virtual simulation teaching group based on Kolb's experiential learning model (N = 263). Comparative analysis was conducted through practical skill assessments, self-evaluations, and course satisfaction surveys. Results: The results demonstrated that the virtual simulation teaching group based on Kolb's experiential learning model significantly outperformed the traditional teaching group in both practical skills and self-assessment (P<0.01). In addition, this group shows significantly high levels of course satisfaction. Conclusion: Virtual simulation teaching based on Kolb's experiential learning model effectively enhances medical undergraduate practical competencies and learning motivation, providing a viable approach for optimizing medical education methodologies.
