What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

Researchers at The Second Hospital of Shandong University are comparing three ways to teach nephrology to third-year medical students during their clinical clerkship. The study assigns 12 teaching groups to traditional lectures, case-based learning with the BOPPPS structure, or the same case-based approach with AI-generated clinical scenarios added. Students in the AI group practice spotting errors in AI recommendations and revising them using textbooks and guidelines. The trial measures clinical case analysis, theoretical knowledge, clinical reasoning, and how well students critique AI advice.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Artificial intelligence-integrated BOPPPS combined with case-based learning, a teaching method for medical students
What this could lead to
If it works, medical schools could adopt AI-integrated case-based teaching to sharpen students' clinical reasoning and their ability to question AI-generated medical advice.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center educational study with 192 students, so the results may not apply to other schools or settings. Teaching methods often show small or mixed effects, and AI tools change quickly.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

192 people

The number who actually took part.

Started

Nov 2025

Finished

Dec 2025

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Third-year undergraduate medical students in the clinical medicine program of Shandong University undertaking the nephrology clerkship at The Second Hospital of Shandong University. * Completion of the required theoretical courses in pathophysiology and internal medicine before study participation. * Provision of written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: \- Previous nephrology clinical clerkship or internship experience, or previous participation in additional nephrology-focused training beyond the standard pre-clerkship curriculum.
