Perceptions of training in gonioscopy.
Article in Eye (London, England), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeTo evaluate ophthalmology trainees' perception of their gonioscopy learning experience in the Ophthalmology Specialty Training programme. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional electronic survey was conducted amongst ophthalmology trainees across London Deaneries. The ten questions survey collected parameters, including training grade, previous level of gonioscopy training, confidence in performing the procedure, level of satisfaction with the training formats received, potential barriers and improvements to the training programme. The respondents were also invited to express any additional comments.
resultsFifty-seven complete responses were analysed. The respondents included 25 junior trainees (ST1-3) and 32 senior trainees (ST4-7 and fellows). One-fifth of the respondents (11/57) were unconfident in performing gonioscopy, the majority being junior trainees (9/11). Over a quarter of the respondents were dissatisfied with the quantity of the gonioscopy training received. Teaching formats, such as consultant teaching (mean 8.0 ± 0.50), self-directed learning (mean 8.0 ± 0.38) and small-group tutorials (mean 7.6 ± 1.6) were all well received. Overall, lack of clinical time was considered as the major barrier to gonioscopy training; however, lack of training was considered as the major barrier in the low-confidence group.
conclusionsThis study highlighted ophthalmology trainees' dissatisfaction in the current gonioscopy training curriculum and a lack of confidence in performing the procedure. Appropriate modifications to the Ophthalmology Specialty Training programme could enhance trainees' gonioscopy learning experience.
