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

BACKGROUND AND

aimMedical knowledge alone is insufficient to provide excellent medical care. Modern healthcare challenges require that all physicians have leadership skills in order to better cooperate and collaborate with other healthcare professionals and effectively lead their teams to provide the best possible care to their patients. The objective of this study was to describe medical students' prior knowledge of leadership concepts, to assess their common practice of its main skills and to explore their general perception of its application by their seniors.

methodsNon-graduated medical students enrolled in the 5th year of medicine or above were invited to fill-in an anonymous online questionnaire. 267 students (66% women) from different medical faculties took part in the study.

results44% of the participants had a vague idea about leadership and 29% were completely ignorant of the concept. 52% of them thought that leadership was not to be expected from medical students, and 65% did not know that leadership in healthcare would benefit the patient. In their responses to simulated situations, the participants presented optimal attitudes embracing leadership attributes regarding self-awareness, receiving feedback, teamwork, stress and conflict management, however they present more contrasting attitudes when it came to time management and questioning oneself. Seniors with good leadership skills were perceived as few by half the participants.

conclusionsThis survey highlighted the need of introducing specific leadership training programs within the curriculum of medical studies in Morocco.
