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: Geriatric hip fractures, clinically designated as "the last fracture in life" due to significant disability and mortality, pose critical educational barriers for orthopedic residents in mastering complex hip anatomy and surgical decision-making competencies. This study evaluates the implementation value of integrating digital 3D-printing technology with CBL pedagogy in standardized residency training for geriatric hip fracture management. Methods: Fifty-six orthopedic residents undergoing standardized training at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were enrolled and randomly assigned to either the control group (CBL, Results: Following the instructional intervention, the CBL-3DP group demonstrated significantly superior performance compared to the conventional CBL group in both theoretical and practical assessments. Theoretically, the CBL-3DP cohort achieved higher scores in regional anatomy comprehension, fracture classification accuracy, and mastery of treatment principles ( Conclusion: The integration of 3D printing with CBL methodology enhances training effectiveness and learner satisfaction in geriatric hip fracture education, supporting its adoption in standardized orthopedic residency programs.
