Determining trainees' knowledge of surgical anatomy: A specialist's perspective.

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
objectivesIntraoperative identification of anatomical structures can potentially reduce the risk of surgical complications. This study aims to report specialists' perspectives about the anatomical structures that third-year residents should be able to identify during surgical operations. In addition, the factors which may influence specialists' opinions are discussed. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis qualitative cross-sectional study was conducted on obstetricians and gynaecologists between 1/2/2019 and 30/10/2019. The specialists practising in a hospital with a residency programme were included, and were asked to rate the importance of structures that a third-year resident should be able to identify during operations. We performed a comparison of responses based on specialists' age, gender, practice type, years of experience, and surgical workload.
resultsOne hundred and sixty-five specialists were recruited with a response rate of 69.3%. The mean age of respondents was 46.1 years, and they had a mean experience of 13.4 years. Furthermore, 86.6% of specialists rated all the anatomical structures as "more important". The importance of surgical structures, as rated by specialists, was not related to gender, years of experience, or surgical workload. The importance of 63% of the anatomical structures was rated higher by junior specialists than senior specialists.
conclusionKnowledge of anatomical structures is vital for gynaecologic residency training. Specialist's perceptions of the importance of various anatomical structures reflect their understanding of the training requirements. Our results highlighted the important anatomical structures that third-year residents are expected to identify during surgical operations. Future research may establish a reference for the core anatomy knowledge essential for each training year.
