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

Purpose: Case-based learning (CBL) is widely used in rehabilitation and continuing medical education to support the development of clinical reasoning and reflective practice. However, traditional written cases may inadequately capture the multimodal, relational, and contextual complexity of real-world clinical encounters. This paper describes a design-based process for transforming written case studies into video-based cases using a multiliteracies framework to enhance CBL in rehabilitation education, with relevance to continuing medical education. Methods: A design-based research approach guided the iterative development of three video case studies: a pediatric case, an adult recovery case, and a developed traumatic brain injury case. The process followed five design thinking phases: discovery, interpretation, ideation, experimentation, and evolution. Multiliteracies principles informed the integration of visual, auditory, linguistic, and relational modes of learning. All videos were co-created to ensure clinical accuracy, authenticity, and feasibility within a resource-constrained setting. An expert review was also conducted with the videos to explore the acceptability, feasibility, and appropriateness of the videos. Results: The design process resulted in three contextually grounded video case studies that supported learners' engagement with clinical reasoning, patient-centered care, and multidisciplinary perspectives. The design-based approach facilitated interdisciplinary collaboration and refinement, showing a scalable and cost-conscious model for educational innovation. Experts reported high feasibility and acceptability alongside strong perceived appropriateness of the videos. Conclusion: Transforming written cases into video-based case studies using a multiliteracies-informed, design-based approach offers a practical and transferable strategy for enhancing case-based learning in rehabilitation and continuing medical education. This approach supports reflective, empathetic, and contextually responsive clinical reasoning and provides a replicable framework for educators seeking to integrate digital media into health professions education.
