Growth, Engagement, and Belonging in the Clinical Learning Environment: the Role of Psychological Safety and the Work Ahead.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Psychological safety is the perception that an environment is safe for interpersonal risk taking, exposing vulnerability, and contributing perspectives without fear of being shamed, blamed, or ignored. The presence of psychological safety has been associated with improved team learning and innovation, leader inclusivity, and team members' sense of belonging. In medical education, psychological safety has additional benefits: it allows learners to be present in the moment and to focus on the tasks at hand, and reduces trainee focus on image. Several key features of psychologically safe environments have already been described, including the presence of high-quality relationships, the absence of social positioning, a learner-driven and flexible learning agenda, the lack of formal assessment, and time for debriefing. However, many of the structures and cultural traditions in medical education are in clear opposition to these features. This paper describes the current barriers to psychological safety in medical education, and sets out an agenda for change. In accordance with benefits seen in other sectors, we anticipate that an emphasis on relationships and psychological safety will support the learning, inclusion, and success of medical trainees.
