Endoscopy training in COVID-19: Challenges and hope for a better age.
Review in Journal of gastroenterology and hepatology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The COVID-19 pandemic is a unique challenge that has disrupted endoscopy training. Initial infection control measures aimed at protecting patients and staff meant nonessential endoscopic activity was suspended in many countries. The decrease in elective caseload from the pandemic also reduced training numbers during this period. While hands-on training took a backseat, more efforts were directed to didactic training of cognitive competencies. We review the literature describing the impact of COVID-19 on endoscopy training and summarize key measures aimed at mitigating this effect. These include leveraging on web-based didactic material and video-conferences, increased use of simulation and models to hone technical competencies, and a shift in focus from numbers-based accreditation to competency-based accreditation. While COVID-19 was hoped to be short-lived, it is clear the impact is long-lasting. Hence, it is crucial for training programs to take stock of how endoscopy training is evolving and use this opportunity to implement new paradigms into their endoscopic training curricula. COVID-19 might just be the catalyst that transforms endoscopy training into a new digital era.
