Video review for measuring and improving skill in urological surgery.
Review in Nature reviews. Urology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Interest is growing within the urological surgery community for objective assessments of technical skill. Surgical video review relies on the use of objective assessment tools to evaluate both global and procedure-specific skill. These evaluations provide structured feedback to surgeons with the aim of improving technique, which has been associated with patient outcomes. Currently, skill assessments can be performed by using expert peer-review, crowdsourcing or computer-based methods. Given the relationship between skill and patient outcomes, surgeons might be required in the future to provide empirical evidence of their technical skill for certification, employment, credentialing and quality improvement. Interventions such as coaching and skills workshops incorporating video review might help surgeons improve their skill, with the ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes.
