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

introductionGiven that primary care has been found to be the most likely point of entry into the health care system for concussion patients, diagnosis and management of concussions are vital to the education of family medicine physicians. Studies of primary care residencies reveal a self-perceived deficiency in sports medicine education. This project was designed to determine the effect of a concussion management clinic on family medicine residents' confidence in and personal value placed on diagnosing and managing concussions.

methodsThis project was completed in a family medicine residency as a retrospective evaluation of an educational improvement project during the 2016-2017 academic year. The intervention involved implementation of a structured clinical experience focused on management of concussions. Residents were surveyed preintervention, as well as 5 and 11 months postintervention, measuring resident exposure to and confidence in diagnosing and managing concussions.

resultsResidents demonstrated significantly increased confidence in diagnosing concussions and managing complicated concussions following the intervention (both

conclusionsThis project is the first to evaluate the impact of a concussion clinic on resident education, demonstrating significant improvement in multiple areas of concussion education. Replicating the project in other family medicine residencies could be beneficial in determining if this clinic education model improves resident outcomes in other residencies.
