Resident-Reported Impact of a Novel Oncology Curriculum for Internal Medicine Residents.
Article in Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer Education, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education mandates that all internal medicine residents gain exposure to internal medicine subspecialties including hematology and oncology. While many residents meet this criterion through inpatient oncology rotations, the current structure of many inpatient oncology rotations leaves little opportunity for formal education. We therefore designed a novel oncology curriculum consisting of one-page oncology teaching sheets to increase the number, breadth, and quality of formal teaching sessions on our resident inpatient oncology services. In order to evaluate the curriculum, we conducted pre- and post-intervention surveys of residents. From these surveys, we found that 72.2% of residents used the teaching sheets on their inpatient oncology rotation and that the teaching sheets led to an increase in the number of formal oncology teaching sessions (mean 3.4 ± 2.1 post-implementation vs 2.6 ± 2.0 pre-implementation, p = 0.008), the breadth of oncology topics taught (% reporting ≥ 5 topics; 26.1% vs 16.3%, p = 0.035), the proportion of residents reporting improvement in overall oncology knowledge (80.2% vs 62.4%, p = 0.012), and the proportion of residents reporting improvement in their ability to care for patients (70.8% vs 48.9%, p = 0.013). These results demonstrate that formal oncology teaching can be improved on inpatient oncology rotations through a simple and easily replicable oncology curriculum.
