Development of an undergraduate otorhinolaryngology simulation education and human factors module: its impact on students' attitudes and perceptions.

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
objectivesTo evaluate the impact of a two-week otolaryngology rotation incorporating entrustable professional activities, human factors and simulation on medical students' knowledge, perceptions and career aspirations.
methodsThe curriculum included six small-group sessions on compassion, communication, resilience, teamwork and professionalism, and three simulations: suturing, flexible nasendoscopy and grommet insertion. These were delivered alongside standard teaching. Pre- and post-rotation questionnaires assessed otolaryngology knowledge, career interest, surgical confidence and attitudes toward simulation and human factors.
resultsWhile students' interest in surgical careers remained unchanged, they reported improved comfort with otolaryngology knowledge, operating theatre environments and recognition of non-technical skills. Perceptions of simulation and essential surgeon qualities significantly improved.
conclusionIntegrating entrustable professional activities, human factors education and simulation into short surgical rotations enhances both technical and non-technical skills. This approach may help address challenges in attracting students to surgery by enriching their educational experience and building confidence.
