Improving Gender Diversity in Urologic Residency Training.
Review in Current urology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purpose of reviewWomen remain underrepresented in urology despite being well-represented in medicine overall. A more diverse urological workforce has the potential to lead to better health outcomes for patients. This paper presents an overview of barriers faced by women in urology at the student, resident, and attending level and potential solutions to mitigate these issues. RECENT
findingsAlthough the number of women entering urology has increased since the first woman became a board-certified urologist in 1962, women still are underrepresented, advance more slowly, and hold only a small percentage of leadership positions. Women in urology and surgical fields in general face numerous challenges and obstacles which can be improved to bring and keep more women in the field of urology. Recent efforts by both academic urologists and trainees themselves offer hope for change. Women in urology face challenges in the field which include more limited mentorship opportunities, harassment and bias, and 'pigeonholing'. Recent efforts by both academic urologists and trainees themselves offer hope for change to attract and keep more women in the field. These efforts include the American Urological Association's public commitment to advocating for and fostering a diverse and inclusive environment within urology. A more diverse urological workforce has the potential to lead to better health outcomes for patients, particularly in those populations where access to urological care may be limited.
