Stamp collecting game improves internship performance and experience in medical education.
Trial report in BMC medical education, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTo explore the improvement of internship performance and experience by application of stamp collecting game in neonatal department.
methodsA two-arm parallel-group pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) was conducted with a 1:1 allocation ratio among students rotating in neonatalogy department of Children's Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine between August 1, 2023 and November 30, 2023. This study was registered on the Chinese Clinical Trail Registry under reference number: ChiCTR2300075842 ( https://www.chictr.org.cn/ ). The stamp collecting game was introduced to the experimental group during rotation, while the control group received standard education as usual. Both groups participated in the daily tasks of the internship, attended two clinical courses, and took a post rotation test. The primary outcome was the total score of students' self-evaluation, encompassing proactivity, sense of participation, and harvest degree. Secondary outcomes included subjective evaluation provided by instructors and the test score post-rotation.
resultsA total of 94 enrolled students completed the rotation, with 50 in the control group and 44 in the experimental group. Self-evaluation questionnaires from 81 students were collected. The total score of self-evaluation was significantly higher in the experimental group compared to the control group (11.81 ± 1.47 vs. 10.59 ± 1.91, p = 0.002). Specifically, the experimental group exhibited significantly higher levels of sense of participation and harvest degree, though not proactivity. Regression analysis indicated that the stamp collecting game explained 13.1% (R
conclusionsThe implementation of a stamp collecting game enhances internship performance and experience in medical education.
