Relation of Doximity ranking and matched applicant characteristics in orthopedic residency programs.

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
Orthopedic surgery residency applicants often turn to data from many online ranking platforms to select programs. The purpose of this study was to determine if programs belonging to different Doximity ranking groups and US geographical regions favor certain applicant characteristics in order to give prospective residents more data to make informed application decisions. 2019 Doximity rankings and matched applicant data from the 2019 Association of American Medical Colleges Residency Navigator were collected and used to determine differences among matched applicant characteristics in Doximity ranking groups and US regions. Matched applicants from the top Doximity ranking group had, on average, significantly more peer-reviewed publications than those of any other ranking group. Among US regions, matched applicants in South Atlantic programs had, on average, significantly fewer peer-reviewed publications than those in Mid Atlantic programs. Residents at South Atlantic programs spent a significantly higher percentage of their first-year training in ambulatory community settings than those in Mid Atlantic, Pacific, or East North Central programs. In conclusion, Doximity ranking is associated with certain applicant qualities more than others, and applicants can use the information in this study to strategically apply to institutions with similar training and educational goals.
