Sleep telemedicine training in fellowship programs: a survey of program directors.
Article in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
STUDY
objectivesTelemedicine is a novel modality of health care delivery that can improve patients' access to sleep medicine services, but little is known about telemedicine training during sleep medicine fellowship. We studied telemedicine training prevalence, use, and attitudes of program directors (PDs) and other faculty members, PDs' receptiveness to a standardized telemedicine curriculum, and whether PDs have reviewed existing American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) sleep telemedicine reference materials.
methodsThis was an anonymous online survey of all 86 PDs of accredited sleep medicine fellowships in the United States.
resultsResponse rate was 45%. Thirteen (33.3%) of the PDs already offer telemedicine experience to their trainees, although none use a standard telemedicine curriculum. Among the 26 (66.7%) PDs not offering telemedicine experience, 38.5% plan to do so and 53.9% agree that it would benefit fellows. Most PDs (57.9%) report faculty using telemedicine now or within the next 3 years. Many PDs agree that telemedicine is technically feasible, but relatively few agree it is financially feasible (82.1% and 38%, respectively). Few PDs have reviewed both primary AASM telemedicine reference materials. Overall, 64.1% of PDs agree that a national sleep telemedicine curriculum could be useful.
conclusionsAlthough only a minority of current sleep medicine fellows are exposed to telemedicine, it is likely that most will get some exposure in the next 3 years. PDs' attitudes toward telemedicine vary significantly with respect to feasibility and importance to their programs. Nevertheless, most PDs believe a standardized sleep telemedicine training curriculum could be useful.
