The characteristics and views of early retirees compared with doctors still in work: views of the UK -medical graduates of 1983 surveyed in 2016.
Article in Future healthcare journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Questionnaires were used to compare the characteristics and views of early retirees with those of doctors who were still working. Of doctors aged under 60 years, 88% were still working in medicine, 5% were fully retired and 7% were 'returners' (had retired and returned to do work). More women (8%) than men (4%) were fully retired. More GPs (13%) than hospital doctors (8%) had retired: male hospital doctors had a low retirement rate of 5.3%. More working doctors (28%) than fully retired doctors (20%) agreed that there were good prospects for improvement of the NHS in their specialty. More fully retired doctors (67%) and returners (67%) than working doctors (55%) referred to adverse health effects of working as a doctor. Early retirement decisions were motivated by the doctors' views of what is happening in their own specialty and by adverse health effects that they attributed to their work.
