A Smartphone App-based Malignant Hematology Curriculum for Internal Medicine Residents: A Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer 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
Inpatient malignant hematology rotations are essential for internal medicine residents to gain experience in hematology and oncology. The specialized nature of these rotations represents a challenge in education that is limited by time, complexity of material, and evolving clinical guidelines and recommendations. This study assesses the feasibility of a smartphone application (app) resource for IM residents to use during inpatient malignant hematology rotations. An app encompassing narrative text, figures, and links was created using free online technology. The app and follow-up survey were distributed to all IM residents rotating through the MedStar Georgetown University Hospital inpatient malignant hematology service (Bles2) from 2025-2026. Thirty-six IM residents completed the Bles2 rotation and were eligible to participate in this study, 108 secondary rotators were also included. 18 total survey responses were collected. Of the Bles2 rotators we had a response rate of 44.4% (16/36). Most residents (14/18, 77.8%) referenced the app between 1 and 4 times during their rotation. 17/18 (94.4%) felt that the app saved time looking up information related to a clinical question. On a 1-5 scale, average scores showed positive response to the app helping during the rotation (4.38), being easy to reference (4.61), being clinically relevant (4.66), helping with clinical decision making (4.29), and improving overall experience during the rotation (4.33). We illustrate that a smartphone app can be a novel and effective tool to distribute specialized, dynamically changing information to internal medicine residents rotating through an inpatient malignant hematology service.
