Simulation for assessment of Entrustable Professional Activities in an emergency medicine residency program.
Article in CJEM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
In 2018, Canadian post-graduate Emergency Medicine (EM) programs transitioned to Competence-by-Design. Residents are now assessed using Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs). We developed and implemented simulation for assessment to mitigate anticipated challenges with residents completing the required number of observations of resuscitation-based EPAs. Our survey of trainees who participated in these sessions suggests that it may be a feasible and acceptable method for EPA assessment.
