Data-Driven Residency Training: A Scoping Review of Educational Interventions for Neurosurgery Residency Programs.
Article in Neurosurgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundNeurosurgery residency programs are tasked with imparting large volumes of both clinical knowledge and technical skill to trainees in limited time. Many investigators have described local practices, which may offer evidence-based interventions in neurosurgical residency education, but this literature has not been systematically reviewed.
objectiveTo perform a scoping review of educational practices in neurosurgery, which are supported by quantitative, peer-reviewed research.
methodsA scoping review of the literature was performed. PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases were queried for articles describing educational interventions for neurosurgery residents, which included a quantitative assessment of the effect on resident performance.
resultsFrom an initial set of 1785 unique articles, 29 studies were ultimately screened and included. Studies were into the following 6 topics: (1) didactics and curricula (n = 13), (2) nontechnical skills (n = 6), (3) wellness and burnout (n = 4), (4) assessment and feedback (n = 2), (5) mentorship and career development (n = 2), and (6) research (n = 2). Individual study results were described.
conclusionSeveral educational interventions in neurosurgical training are supported by quantitative evidence. Methodological shortcomings are prevalent among studies of education, particularly in the selection of meaningful outcome measures. A summary of evidence-based considerations is provided for current and future program directors.
