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

Formal presentations continue to play a central role in medical education courses and in academic traditions such as grand rounds and conference sessions. While lectures are an efficient and cost-effective instructional practice, efforts to train medical educators on how to design presentations tend to be limited to discussions of techniques that facilitate active or engaged learning. In this article, we elucidate additional learning theories that should also inform our instructional practice including cognitive apprenticeship, cognitive load, the principles of multi-media learning, the assertion-evidence approach to slide design, explicit instruction, and retrieval practice. We offer practical guidance for improving the design and delivery of academic presentations that is grounded in the cognitive psychology and education literature on how adults learn and that, if adopted, will improve the communication of biomedical content and enhance the experience of biomedical audiences.
