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

backgroundOrthopaedics is a highly specialized discipline characterized by complex theoretical frameworks and extensive knowledge, posing challenges for postgraduate teaching. With the advancement of educational technology, micro-lectures have been increasingly adopted in medical education. However, their isolated use may be insufficient to sustain student engagement or ensure effective learning. The bridge-in, learning objective, pre-test, participatory learning, post-assessment, and summary (BOPPPS) teaching model, which emphasizes the closed-loop management of student participation and teaching feedback, may address these limitations.

objectiveThis study aims to develop and evaluate a BOPPPS-based micro-lecture teaching system for orthopaedic postgraduates, to improve teaching quality, enhance students' clinical competencies, and provide evidence-based insights for teaching reform.

methodsForty-eight first-year surgical postgraduates in a residency program were randomly divided into experimental and control groups (n = 24 per group). The experimental group received micro-lecture instruction integrated within the BOPPPS framework, while the control group received ordinary teaching. Both groups were assessed using the Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise and Direct Observation of Procedural Skills after clinical training. A questionnaire survey was conducted to gauge students' satisfaction with the BOPPPS-based micro-lectures.

resultsThe experimental group showed significantly better clinical diagnostic and treatment abilities than the control group across most domains (
