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

Our novel anatomy and ultrasound curriculum, integrating cadaver lab sessions and ultrasound workshops, enhances resident knowledge, confidence, and competence with ultrasound-guided procedures. Physiatry educators can adopt this longitudinal approach, incorporating spaced repetition and peer learning, to improve ultrasound training. Implementing this curriculum may lead to increased proficiency in ultrasound-guided procedures among residents. For programs without access to a cadaver lab, the curriculum can be modified by using available anatomical models or online cadaveric dissection videos. The minimum resources for programs wishing to implement a similar curriculum include an ultrasound machine and a faculty member for instruction.
