Design, implementation, and evaluation of IIIDDS: a structured WhatsApp case-discussion curriculum in undergraduate radiology education.

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
Background: Instant-messaging platforms like WhatsApp may be a useful and scalable adjunct to undergraduate medical education, particularly when it comes to image-rich disciplines like radiology. We developed a concise, repeatable case-discussion framework for large-scale instant-messaging group chats (IIIDDS: Indication, Imaging, Interpretation, Differentials, Discussion, and Safety-net) to support a student-led, faculty-moderated case-discussion group model. Objective: To explore learner perceptions of a student-led, faculty-moderated radiology WhatsApp group and its structured IIIDDS case-discussion approach between preclinical and clinical undergraduate medical students. Methods: A Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E-Surveys (CHERRIES) informed exploratory cross-sectional survey was distributed to the Radiology Club WhatsApp members via email and WhatsApp. The survey explored perceived usability, educational value, learning environment, and challenges of the platform and IIIDDS model. Descriptive analyses and subgroup comparisons were performed between medical students with and without clinical rotation experience. Results: In total, 128 responses were evaluated in the analysis. Overall comfort with WhatsApp was high (mean 4.50/5). Participants commonly valued shared radiology cases (82.0%), annotated images (76.6%), and faculty guidance (70.3%). Clinical students reported being more comfortable using WhatsApp (mean 4.75 vs. 4.32; Discussion: A structured, student-led, faculty-moderated instant-messaging-based case discussion model was perceived as an accessible and credible adjunct for undergraduate radiology education. Providing a structured case presentation framework and a platform for accessible multimedia sharing was perceived to support reliable and constructive case discussions by combining structured discussion with faculty moderation. Findings suggest practical design priorities for similar implementations, including faculty moderation, structure, and strategies to reduce message-overload.
