Application of the Cognitive Apprenticeship Teaching Model in the Standardized Training of Critical Care Medicine Resident Physicians: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Article in Advances in medical education and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: This study explores the effectiveness of the cognitive apprenticeship teaching model in fostering critical thinking and clinical reasoning and decision-making skills among medical residents during their rotations in the critical care medicine department. Methods: We selected medical residents undergoing standardized training during their rotations in the critical care medicine department at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College as the study participants. We conducted a two-month clinical practice course using the cognitive apprenticeship teaching model and evaluated its outcomes. Results: Prior to the teaching intervention, there were no significant statistical differences (P > 0.05) in the general information and pre-teaching assessment scores related to critical thinking and clinical reasoning and decision-making skills between the two groups of students. However, after the training, the experimental group demonstrated significant improvements in four dimensions: truth-seeking, systematic skills, confidence in critical thinking, and curiosity, compared to the control group. Furthermore, in the Mini-CEX assessment, the experimental group scored higher in six dimensions: medical history inquiry, humane care, communication skills, clinical judgment, organizational efficiency, and overall clinical competency, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) compared to the control group. Conclusion: The cognitive apprenticeship teaching model enhances the critical thinking and clinical reasoning and decision-making skills of resident physicians, thereby improving the effectiveness of medical education.
