Educational Interventions for Medical Students in Chronic Wound Care-A Scoping Review.
Article in International wound journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Wound care education is underrepresented in medical students' curricula. This scoping review aims to provide an overview of the published literature on educational methods and interventions used for chronic wound care education, specifically for medical students. A five-step framework for scoping reviews was used and includes a specific research question, identification of relevant literature, selection of studies, extraction of data and synthesis of the results. In total, six electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase (Ovid), Web of Science, Scopus and APA PsychInfo) were searched with pre-defined search terms. The selection and evaluation of studies were conducted in a blinded review by three independent reviewers. The review was carried out in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR checklist for scoping reviews. We identified nine suitable studies regarding educational interventions for medical students in wound care. The included papers showed a broad variety of educational approaches, such as online learning tools or hands-on skills training. The implemented interventions had a positive effect on the students' wound care knowledge and their ability to perform wound care-related clinical skills. There is no comparison of the effectiveness of the different interventions, and it is not evaluated how effective they are compared to traditional lectures. There remains a need for more wound care education with a focus on the needs of medical students.
