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

backgroundIn India, competency-based medical education (CBME) is gaining foothold to transform the medical student into a doctor fulfilling community and societal needs. With that end in view the teaching faculty are getting sensitized and trained by the National Faculty Development Program (FDP). We aimed to assess the awareness about FDP among teaching faculty in medical colleges and study the attitude and perceived barriers to implementation of CBME. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional, electronically distributed, questionnaire-based study was conducted among medical faculty in India. The questionnaire identified participants' awareness, attitude, and perceived barriers to CBME. Descriptive analysis was employed for continuous variables and internal comparison employing Chi-square test with α <0.05 for statistical significance.

resultsAmong 251 participants 90.2% faculties from private institutes had undergone FDP as against 71% from Government sector (

conclusionMost of the medical faculty are aware of the need and have acquired a positive attitude towards enforcement of CBME. However, significant barriers do exist in the form of manpower and resources which need to be addressed.
