1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

There are increasing concerns regarding the recruitment and retention within general medicine. National surveys were conducted among foundation year 2 doctors (FY2), year 1 and year 2 core medical trainees (CT1 and CT2) and medical registrars (StR/ST3+) exploring their enjoyment of medicine, overall satisfaction, career aspirations, influencing factors and perceptions of the medical registrar. The results highlight that many doctors at the FY2, CT1 and CT2 levels are being deterred from general medicine by the perceived unmanageable workload and poor work-life balance of the medical registrar. Medical registrars themselves are less satisfied in general internal medicine than they are in their main specialties. Therefore, priority needs to be placed on clarifying the roles, and improving the morale, of medical registrars. If current trends persist, these will have a significant impact on patient safety, patient care and workforce planning.
