The impact of advanced practice providers on the surgical resident experience: Agree to disagree?
Article in American journal of surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
backgroundWe examined and compared APP versus surgical resident perceptions of the role of APPs in surgical subspecialty teams.
methodsResidents/first year surgical critical care fellows and inpatient service-specific APPs responded to a survey that examined perceptions about the APP-resident/fellow relationship. Statistical analysis compared responses using a Pearson chi-square test.
resultsThirty-two resident/fellows (48%) and 10 APPs (42%) responded. There was consensus that having an APP on service decreases workload, contributes to continuity of care and enhances resident-patient coordination education and agreement that there was clear communication and adequate collaboration. Both groups differed with respect to APPs contribution to resident/fellow clinical education, role definition and chain of command. The majority of trainees felt that APPs function at a PGY2 level (51.7%) compared to APPs, who felt that they functioned at a PGY4/5 (22%) or Fellow (44%) level.
conclusionAPPs and resident/fellows agree that APPs impact resident workload, continuity of care and patient-coordination education.
