Evidence¶

Jia Xue MM 2018¶

Jia Xue MM, Zeng Wen MM, Zhang Qin MM, Tarantino. Giovanni. (2018). Combined administration of problem- and lecture-based learning teaching models in medical education in China: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Medicine. https://doi.org/10.1097/MD.0000000000011366

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Meta-analysis of 6 RCTs reporting medical writing scores (288 and 287 students in the PBL+LBL and LBL groups, respectively), random effects model due to higher heterogeneity (P < .00001, I2 = 84%). The article's text says "skill scores" where it means medical writing scores.

"The meta-analysis of the medical writing scores found that the PBL+LBL teaching model significantly increased skill scores by a mean of 2.54 compared with the LBL teaching model (95% CI, 1.04–4.04; P = .0009)."
