The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT) Consensus Statement on Major Trauma Training in the UK.
Article in Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionSince the establishment of the Major Trauma Networks in 2012, it is estimated that an extra 1,600 lives have been saved across England. Although the delivery of trauma care has improved significantly, the provision of trauma training has not and remains fragmented. The Association of Surgeons in Training (ASiT), an independent organisation run by trainees, is dedicated to excellence in surgical training within the United Kingdom (UK) and Republic of Ireland (ROI). The aim of this study was to develop a consensus statement representing the views of the ASiT on the future of trauma surgery training.
methodsA modified nominal group technique was used in five stages: 1, scoping exercise; 2, virtual consultation; 3, nominal group consensus meeting; 4, virtual feedback from stakeholders; and 5, virtual confirmation by the ASiT Council. The design and reporting of the consensus followed best practice methodology for consensus research.
resultsOverall, 62 participants gave 90 statements across stages 1-3. Eleven key themes were identified, all of which met the consensus of the ASiT Council. The key findings were widespread support for increased exposure to trauma for medical students and early surgical trainees as well as an increased use of simulation methods and improved focus on non-technical skills within trauma surgery.
conclusionsThis study sets out the position of the ASiT on the future of trauma surgery training and how training in major trauma surgery in the UK and ROI could be improved.
