Virtual Care Training: A Competency-Based Telehealth Curriculum for Physician Trainees.
Article in Journal of medical education and curricular development. 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
Introduction: Although virtual care has rapidly expanded, standardized, competency-based training is lacking. We developed a feasible, interactive, virtual care training (VCT) curriculum for trainee physicians that is aligned with nationally recognized competency standards. Methods: Utilizing a single-group pre-post quasi-experimental design, we implemented a three-hour, in-person, competency-based VCT program aligned with the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) telehealth competencies. The program comprised a one-hour interactive didactic session followed by two one-hour activity rotations: (1) two experiential case-based activities and (2) two objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs)-simulated encounters with standardized patients to perform a virtual physical examination and medication reconciliation. Standardized patients and faculty debriefers provided real-time feedback. Self-reported outcomes (comfort, difficulty, and likelihood to recommend) were evaluated using pre- and post-program surveys, while objective clinical performance was assessed by faculty debriefers during the OSCEs. Results: One hundred twenty-six trainees participated in the VCT program: 119 (94.0%) completed the pre-program survey and 126 (100.0%) completed the post-program survey. Among the pre-program survey respondents, 64.0% reported having neither previous training in virtual care nor prior experience conducting a virtual care visit with a patient. Post-program, trainees reported significant improvements in being "very" or "quite" comfortable with virtual care visits (94.4% vs 36.9%), virtual physical examinations (78.5% vs 10.0%), and virtual medication reconciliation (96.0% vs 60.5%) (all Conclusion: Our structured three-hour VCT program is a feasible model that leads to significant improvements in trainee confidence and the demonstrated performance of discrete telehealth tasks. This curriculum offers a scalable approach for integrating telehealth training into graduate medical education.
