Anatomy education experiences of physical education professionals in a wellness-centered era: Evidence from South Korea.
Article in Anatomical sciences 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
Understanding human anatomy is crucial for professionals working in physical education-related fields. However, anatomy education in South Korean universities is often perceived as insufficiently aligned with professional demands. This study aims to document current experiences and perceptions of anatomy education among individuals engaged in physical education and identify areas where educational provision may not fully align with professional needs. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among 730 individuals involved in physical education-related fields in South Korea. Participants reported demographic characteristics, anatomy education experiences, and perceptions regarding the sufficiency and relevance of anatomical knowledge. Group differences were examined using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Participants rated their overall anatomy knowledge at a mean score of 3.40 out of 5, with significant variation across professional orientations (p < 0.001). While 48.1% of respondents identified cadaver-based training as the most effective educational method, such training was largely absent from university curricula and mainly accessed through private programs. Costs and satisfaction levels differed significantly, with external programs often perceived as higher in quality despite greater financial burden. These findings provide a national snapshot of perceived experiences and expectations regarding anatomy education among individuals in physical education-related fields in South Korea. The results highlight persistent discrepancies between university-based anatomy education and professional requirements, particularly regarding practical and cadaver-based learning opportunities. Although this study does not directly evaluate university curricula, the documented perception patterns may inform efforts to better align anatomy education with practical demands of non-medical professional training.
