Financial Literacy in Orthopaedic Surgery Residents: A COERG Survey.
Article in Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Global research & reviews, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionFinancial literacy is the individual ability and skill to make informed decisions in the management of resources within the financial marketplace to yield a lifetime of financial well-being. Residents across several subspecialties have demonstrated low levels of financial literacy, and it is thought that more financial education is needed during residency training. The purpose of this study is to perform a comprehensive evaluation on financial literacy and financial attitudes of orthopaedic surgery residents. The authors hypothesize that orthopaedic residents will have low levels of financial literacy and financial satisfaction.
methodsA 46-question anonymous survey was administered through COERG (Collaborative Orthopaedic Educational Research Group) to 1028 orthopaedic surgery residents of all postgraduate year at 43 programs with broad national distribution. Resident demographics and survey responses regarding knowledge of finance and investment topics, application of financial principles, and personal financial status were compared.
resultsThe survey response rate was 48% (494/1028). The average financial literacy score of all orthopaedic resident participants was 60.9% (±16.5%). A total of 35.5% of orthopaedic residents were satisfied with their current financial situation. Saving for retirement and lower loan burdens correlated with greater financial satisfaction in financial situation. Scores were higher in orthopaedic residents with greater childhood annual household income, no credit card debt, higher levels of parent education, and active retirement savings plans.
conclusionsOrthopaedic residents show significant deficits in overall financial and investment knowledge combined with a dissatisfaction with financial situations while in residency. Orthopaedic residency programs have the opportunity to implement program-sponsored training and financial resources to enhance the resident education experience.
