1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

problem addressedThe stresses that arise during the first years of practice can discourage future physicians from choosing family medicine. Quebec is experiencing challenges in recruiting clinical family physicians to replace those nearing retirement. Mentorship is a promising approach that supports future family physicians. OBJECTIVE OF PROGRAM: To help family physicians at the beginning of their practice to adequately cope with the issues and challenges that come with professional integration and their personal and professional development. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: A 12-month program that pairs mentors with mentees, on the mentee's initiative; it provides supports for mentors (such as a community of practice), and it comprises meeting formats that encourage the participation of mentees and mentors from different geographic regions across Quebec.

conclusionEngaging and supporting mentees and mentors are essential to success, but might also present organizational challenges to sustaining formal mentorship programs for new family physicians in Quebec.
