Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? AI-enhanced VR dissection raised medical student engagement by 34% relative to cadaver-based practice, with high equipment costs as a constraint. → Long DY 2026

q2 · i? · review · r2
The review reports, citing Koney et al. (2024), a 34% engagement increase for virtual dissection versus cadaver-based practice; the 34% figure is a printed percentage, not a standardized effect size.
"Anatomage virtual dissection ( Koney et al., 2024 ) increased medical student engagement by 34% compared to cadaver-based practice, constrained by equipment costs exceeding $72,000 per station."
