Fellow-led case-based curriculum to improve pediatric resident education in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Article in BMC medical education, 2026. 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
backgroundThe objective of this study was to implement a novel, fellow-as-teacher curriculum for pediatric residents, built upon brief, case-based teaching in a level III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
methodsWe added a novel, case-based educational curriculum focused on key fetal and neonatal medicine topics, built around pediatrics board review questions. Fellows facilitated case discussions using these questions. Participating residents completed summative knowledge (NICU Rotation Test) and experience (Education Evaluation Survey) assessments pre- and post-implementation of this curriculum.
resultsEighty-three residents completed the NICU Rotation Test, 47 in the pre-curriculum group and 36 in the post-curriculum group. On the NICU Rotation Test, the median score did not differ between the pre- and post-curriculum groups. The post-curriculum Education Evaluation Surveys demonstrated significantly more positive responses than the pre-curriculum surveys.
conclusionsResidents reported improvement in the overall teaching during their rotation without interfering with patient care or being time intensive.
