Subclaims¶
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? VR teaching demonstrated significantly higher clinical operation scores compared to traditional teaching methods (SMD=1.44, 95% CI 1.07-1.81; P<.001). → Li Ting 2025

q2 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Meta-analysis pooling 15 RCTs (n=700) of VR versus traditional teaching; random-effects model applied because of significant heterogeneity (I2=78%). The pooled estimate favors VR for technical proficiency in clinical procedures; GRADE certainty was very low.
"VR teaching demonstrated significantly higher clinical operation scores compared to traditional teaching methods (SMD=1.44, 95% Cl 1.07-1.81; P<.001; see Figure 4)."
