1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundEmergency radiology (ER) is an important part of radiology. But what exactly is ER? How can the required competencies be acquired in a good and feasible way? Who should be in charge of this?

objectivesDiscussion of ER contents and suggestions for the improvement of the acquisition of respective competencies during radiology training. MATERIALS AND

methodsGeneral literature review, in particular the current German blueprint for medical specialist training regulations (Weiterbildungsordnung, WBO 2020), publications by the German Radiological Society (DRG), the European Society of Radiology (ESR), the European Society of Emergency Radiology (ESER) and the American Society of Emergency Radiology (ASER). RESULTS AND

conclusionsAs proof of competence in ER in Germany, confirmation from the authorised residency training supervisor as to whether there is 'competence to act' either 'independently' or 'under supervision' in the case of 'radiology in an emergency situation …, e.g. in the case of polytrauma, stroke, intensive care patients' is sufficient. The ESER refers to all acute emergencies with clinical constellations requiring an immediate diagnosis 24/7 and, if necessary, acute therapy. The ESER and ASER offer, among other things, practical fellowships in specialised institutions, while the ESER complements this with a European Diploma in Emergency Radiology (EDER). On a national level, it would be advisable to use existing definitions, offers and concepts, from the ESR, ESER and ASER. Specialised institutions could support the acquisition of ER competencies with fellowships. For Germany, it seems sensible to set up a separate working group (Arbeitsgemeinschaft, AG) on ER within the DRG in order to drive the corresponding further ER development.
