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

Objective: The post-pandemic era has accelerated the integration of digital tools like the Rain Classroom platform into clinical medical education. This study examined factors influencing preclinical medical students' satisfaction with hospital teachers' instruction in this blended learning context at a Chinese medical college. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 278 teaching evaluations was conducted. Preclinical medical students anonymously assessed clinicians through an online teaching evaluation system across three domains: Professionalism (Score1, 30 points), Pedagogical skills (Score2, 40 points), and Learning outcomes (Score3, 30 points). Internal consistency was verified (Cronbach's Results: We found that class size negatively correlated with all scores (Score1: rho = -0.186, Conclusion: Smaller class sizes and specialized courses enhanced satisfaction in Rain Classroom-based blended learning, while instructor characteristics like gender, age, degree, experience, and title did not influence students' satisfaction.
