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

Introduction Guiding patients and their families through threat and tragedy is an essential skill for physicians. Educational opportunities to acquire this crucial expertise during medical training are limited. We describe a workshop design employing simulation and team-based reflection to enhance pediatric residents' confidence in delivering life-altering news. Methods Three hundred and seventy-six pediatric residents participated in an annual 2.75-hour workshop from 2011 to 2018. For each session, 24 to 28 residents were randomly assigned to learning teams of 6-7 trainees and two faculty. Each team had four different simulated parent encounters to convey life-altering news. Briefing and debriefing of encounters utilized team-based reflection. The impact of this educational intervention was evaluated using retrospective pre-post self-report questionnaires. Results Participants indicated that the learning experience was realistic, useful, and was provided in a safe learning environment. Residents reported increased confidence in their ability to communicate various types of life-altering news. A one-year follow-up survey indicated most respondents found the experience useful in actual practice subsequent to the workshop. The design also appears to be an efficient use of resources. Conclusion A workshop combining team-based reflection and simulation improves the confidence of pediatric residents in communicating life-altering news.
