One stream shows you something you can make this week. The other looks at what is being claimed, and what the evidence actually supports. Both end at a skill you can practise.

There’s reading a paper. And then there’s really getting under its skin. Bring your curiosity. Learn a more deliberate way to explore.
The moment you recognise
A paper for tomorrow’s journal club. A dozen questions worth asking.
Try it with this synthetic material
A fictional journal-club abstract describes 48 residents whose mean quiz score rose from 6/10 to 8/10 immediately after a workshop. There is no control group, follow-up or patient-outcome measure.
Make something useful
Make a claim/evidence/limitation table. Identify why this cannot establish a lasting improvement in clinical care. Draft three questions for journal club.
Your check: Separate supplied facts from suggestions. Open the source, identify what is missing and record what you changed.

FICTIONAL STUDY BRIEF
48 residents attended a journal-club workshop. Their average appraisal quiz score rose from 6/10 before the workshop to 8/10 immediately afterwards.
No comparison group. No later follow-up. Patient outcomes were not measured.
Now imagine handing this to an AI and asking for a summary for tomorrow’s journal club. Your job is what comes next: checking what it hands back.
This example is prewritten. No live AI request or real study is involved.
