Optimizing Multidisciplinary Neurotraumatology Education in Thailand: Aptitude-Dependent Outcomes in Virtual Patient Simulation in Collaboration with the Academy for Multidisciplinary Neurotraumatology.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery, 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
Objective: Simulation-based medical education is a key tool in developing clinical skills, particularly in neurotraumatology. This study explores how learning contexts (individual vs. team-based) and learner aptitude impact outcomes during virtual patient simulation (VPS) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) diagnosis and decision-making, with a focus on AI, technology, and multidisciplinary collaboration. Materials and Methods: Eighty-five fourth- to sixth-year medical cadets participated in VPS exercises using the Neurological Exam Rehearsal Virtual Environment. Cadets were randomly assigned to individual or five-member team-based simulations, diagnosing virtual patients with TBI. Knowledge was assessed pre- and postsimulation via a 12-item test. Postsimulation surveys assessed confidence and system usability. Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance and the Johnson-Neyman technique to assess aptitude-treatment interactions (ATI). Results: A significant ATI effect was observed. Cadets with lower baseline aptitude (pretest ≤ 50%) showed significant improvement in posttest performance and diagnostic confidence in the team-based group (83% vs. 62%, Conclusion: Team-based VPS significantly enhances learning outcomes, particularly for lower-aptitude learners. These findings support integrating adaptive, team-centered simulation designs into medical curricula. The study advocates for fostering multidisciplinary teams to improve TBI care and align with the objectives of the National Trauma Simulation Center and the Academy for Multidisciplinary Neurotraumatology.
