Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on U.S. Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Fellowship Training.
Article in ATS scholar, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundAlthough it is well known that the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had a profound effect on health care, its impact on fellowship training in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) has not been well described.
objectiveWe conducted an anonymous survey of PCCM program directors (PDs) to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on PCCM fellowship training across the United States.
methodsWe developed a 30-question web-based survey that was distributed to U.S. PCCM PDs through the Association of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Program Directors.
resultsThe survey was sent to 242 PDs, of whom 28.5% responded. Most of the responses (76.8%) came from university-based programs. Almost universally, PDs reported a decrease in the number of pulmonary function tests (100%), outpatient visits (94.1%), and elective bronchoscopies (96%). Three-quarters (77.6%) of the PDs reported that their PCCM fellows spent more time in the intensive care unit than originally scheduled.
conclusionThe COVID-19 pandemic has had a variable impact on different aspects of fellowship training. PDs reported a significant decrease in the core components of pulmonary training, whereas certain aspects of critical care training increased. It is likely that targeted mitigation strategies will be needed to ensure no gaps in PCCM training while optimizing well-being.
