Surgical tuition within Irish hospitals: a national survey.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
introductionThe General Medical Council (GMC) of the UK states that doctors have a duty to train and contribute to the education of colleagues, and that those involved in formal clinical teaching should have a teaching qualification.
objectivesWe sought to evaluate the current levels of engagement of surgical trainees and recently appointed surgical consultants in clinical teaching.
methodsAll trainees who commenced a basic or higher surgical training post during or after 2007 were invited to participate. The electronic questionnaire was administered using the survey tool GetFeedback, collecting information regarding subspecialty, current role, quantity of teaching that respondents engaged in and who they taught and teaching motivations and barriers.
resultsThere were 128 respondents out of 358 invitations to participate (36% response rate). Less than half (39%) of respondents had attended formal courses on clinical education. Over 70% of respondents engaged in clinical teaching for two or more hours each week. A lack of time and resources were noted as barriers to engaging in teaching. We found a low number of those involved in teaching seeking feedback after teaching sessions.
conclusionIn surgery, the apprenticeship model is still the framework for developing the surgeons of the future. In attempting to produce a highly skilled workforce for the future, we rely on those in senior positions to train those coming through; higher surgical trainees are relied on to teach the core surgical trainees and so on. Our study shows a low level of formalisation of this model.
