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

objectiveThe coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic stressed healthcare organizations. Initial efforts focused on supplies with a minimal empha- sis on frontline healthcare workers' wellbeing. Anaesthesiology residents represent vulnerable frontline healthcare workers because airway pro- cedures increase nosocomial infection risks. Peer support can promote healthcare workers' wellbeing during crises; its application to graduate medical trainees is underrepresented in the literature. We implemented a quality improvement project to improve wellbeing among anaesthesiol- ogy residents via a peer support system called BUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support.

methodsBUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support consists of pairing 2 anaesthesiology residents with instructions to support each other in anticipation of a coronavirus disease 2019 case surge. A lecture presentation introduced this system to the residents and described frequent check-ins with another resident. We evaluated the initiative with a survey 2-4 weeks postimplementation.

resultsBUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support began in April 2020 and involved 88 residents. Survey respondents (n = 58) indicated that BUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support had a positive impact on their wellbeing. BUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support implementation had no additional costs, requiring minimal resource dedication.

conclusionsBUilding Dynamic Duos for Your Support promoted wellbeing among anaesthesiology trainees. This quality improvement project highlights the positive impact of a peer support system on anaesthesiology residents' wellbeing with a potential broader application to graduate medical education.
