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

Study objective We investigate the continuing medical education delivery preferences among emergency medicine providers, both physicians and advanced practice providers (APPs), within a large, national emergency medicine group. Methods A survey was sent via email to all emergency medicine health care providers in the practice group, including questions evaluating both delivery method and topic preference for continuing education. The study was sent to providers whom the group employed from October 2019 through January 2020. Results A total of 2038 providers, 1373 physicians, and 665 APPs completed the survey - a completion rate of 68.7%. In general, practitioners expressed willingness to learn across various platforms, with a strong overall preference towards online and on-demand options, including video, podcast, and written materials. Universally, a larger percentage of APPs identified a desire for more continuing education across all topics than physicians. Conclusion Education preferences among emergency medicine providers vary with a strong trend toward online and on-demand content. Understanding the delivery and topic preferences for providers is important for the optimal creation of continuing education content.
