Values-Based Resident Selection in an Internal Medicine-Pediatrics Residency Program.
Review in Journal of general internal medicine, 2023. 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
backgroundThere is no consensus regarding values important for medical resident success, and current methods for selecting residents correlate poorly with success in residency.
objectiveWe developed and validated a set of values demonstrated by exemplary residents in the Internal Medicine-Pediatrics program at the University of Utah and used them to inform our resident selection process.
designWe utilized a modified Delphi method to identify and internally validate values of successful residents. We implemented these values into the interview evaluation rubric.
participantsFour members of the Internal Medicine-Pediatrics residency program leadership and eleven current residents aided in value generation. Nine faculty from leadership positions in the residency programs of Internal Medicine-Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, and Pediatrics formed a local expert panel for validation. APPROACH: We performed a literature review and engaged local stakeholders in a semi-structured group interview to generate 107 values. After consolidation based on redundancy, two iterative cycles of expert review using a modified Delphi approach, and alignment with the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education core competencies, eleven values achieved expert agreement and were integrated into an interview rubric to aid in resident selection. KEY
resultsWe identified eleven values important for resident success: academic strength, intellectual curiosity, compassion, communication, work ethic, teamwork, leadership, self-awareness, DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), professionalism, and adaptability. The rank list from 2021 was found to correlate with a score based on values, but not Step 2 score, as it did in 2017.
conclusionsWe applied a modified Delphi method to generate eleven observable values present in the ideal Internal Medicine-Pediatric resident at one academic health center in the Intermountain West. Higher Step 2 scores no longer correlated with higher ranking when we used these values to inform our rank list.
