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

Two large national studies of resident duty hours incidentally revealed surgical and medical resident dissatisfaction with residency training. Aiming for an inclusive and democratic approach to improve graduate medical education, we conducted a national innovation tournament--reaching out to the program directors of all 474 US internal medicine residency programs to invite them and their residents and associate program directors to participate. Participants could submit multiple ideas as individuals or teams in four domains: [1] resident well-being and personal and professional development; [2] resident education and clinical preparedness; [3] resident sleep and alertness; and [4] patient safety. Residents and program directors were reinvited to rate ideas, whether they had submitted ideas themselves or not. We used a schedule of lottery-based prizes to stimulate the submission and rating of ideas and encourage engagement. 164 residents and program directors from 51 different programs submitted 328 ideas. 153 residents and program directors from 48 different programs submitted 15,345 ratings of ideas. Winning ideas aimed to reduce residents' work burden or improve their mental health, sleep, eating, or relaxation or reflected technical fixes to the operations of residency, such as changing vacation schedules and the timing of pay. The results of this tournament provided actionable suggestions to improve residency training now being tested in our own residency programs. Innovation tournaments drive engagement and generate value by their opportunities for inclusion and by shifting problem solving to the end user.
