From Surface to Deep Learning: Gamified Mobile Education for Subcutaneous and Intramuscular Injection Skills.

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
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a game-based mobile application on nursing students' skills in administering subcutaneous (SC) and intramuscular (IM) injections. Nursing education traditionally involves both theoretical and practical components. With the advent of digital technologies, innovative methods such as game-based learning have been introduced to enhance practical skills and knowledge retention in nursing education. This study explores the use of a mobile application designed to improve students' competence in SC and IM drug administration. This was an experimental study conducted during the 2021-2022 academic year. It involved a study group of 64 students who received training through a simulation game system and a control group of 65 students who underwent traditional training methods. Data were collected using the Self-Demonstration Form, the Study Process Questionnaire, and the Skills Performance List for Subcutaneous and Intramuscular Administration. The study focused on assessing the impact of game-based learning on students' performance and learning approaches. The study group showed significantly greater improvements in learning approaches and medication administration skills compared to the control group. Deep learning scores increased from 31.39 ± 6.23 to 45.05 ± 5.46 in the study group, versus 31.78 ± 5.68 to 37.02 ± 4.17 in the control group (
