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

The Joint Task Force for Clinical Trial Competency (JTF) conducted a global survey of clinical research professionals requesting respondents to self-assess their competencies in each of the eight domains of its Core Competency Framework version 3.1. The results were analyzed based upon role, years of experience, educational level, professional certification, institutional affiliation, and continuing education participation. Respondents with professional certification self-assessed their competencies in all domains at higher levels than those without professional certification. The survey demonstrated that irrespective of role, experience, or educational level, training curricula in both pre-professional and continuing professional education should include additional content relating to research methods, protocol design, medical product development and regulation, and data management and informatics. These results validate and extend the recommendations of a similar 2016 JTF and other surveys. We further recommend that clinical and translational research organizations and clinical sites assess training needs locally, using both subjective and objective measures of skill and knowledge.
