It's a Win-Win: The Effect of Medical Students on Clinic Productivity.
Article in PRiMER (Leawood, Kan.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Objective: We sought to explore whether obstetrics and gynecology (Ob-Gyn) ambulatory clinic preceptors can maintain their clinical productivity with a learner (medical student) present. Methods: We studied the productivity of five exemplary Ob-Gyn faculty over the 2016-2017 academic year. We used paired two-tailed Results: Three faculty had significant increases in relative value units (RVUs) per clinic half-day when a medical student was present (11%-31% increase, Conclusion: This mixed-methods pilot study suggests that medical students do not impede clinician productivity when utilized effectively in the outpatient setting. Further contemporary research is needed to assess the impact of learners on ambulatory clinician productivity in light of Medicare policy changes and modifications in medical education due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
