[Personality traits in anesthesiology : Results from a questionnaire-based requirements analysis].
Article in Der Anaesthesist, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCriteria for the identification of suitable applicants for undergraduate and postgraduate medical education are greatly and ubiquitously discussed. Apart from the acquisition of theoretical knowledge and practical skills, certain personality traits are necessary for practicing the medical profession; however, little is known on the personality traits required for medical subspecialties. This study had two objectives: 1) identification and evaluation of personality traits which are essential for performing anesthesiology and 2) establishment of a job specification for anesthesiology.
methodsWe performed a survey among German anesthesiologists using an online questionnaire. This questionnaire collected demographic data, such as age, gender, level of postgraduate education and 28 personality traits from 5 categories: cognition, psychomotor, physical, sensory and social interactive properties. The participants were asked to rate the personality traits on a 5-point Likert scale. Statistical analysis was performed using an ANOVA.
resultsA total of 714 questionnaires were analyzed. Social interactive skills and cognitive personality traits were considered as most important for a clinical career in anesthesiology. The three personality traits rated highest were a high decision-making ability, stress tolerance and speed of perception. Furthermore, a high apprehension, affability and patient-oriented behavior are needed.
conclusionA job specification describing important personality traits can be useful to advise both undergraduates and postgraduates on their medical career and for medical team simulation tasks. For the clinical practice in anesthesiology, for example, high social interactive and cognitive personality traits are required.
