Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association HPB Ultrasound and Advanced Technology post-graduate course: Overview and review.
Article in Surgery open science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (AHPBA) established the Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) ultrasound (US) and Advanced Technology Post-Graduate Course in 2012 in response to a perceived gap in training and practice. Methods: The HPB US and Advanced Technology Post-Graduate Course consists of both didactic and hands-on skills sessions. The didactic sessions are divided into foundational, organ-focused, and application content. Hands-on sessions are constructed to immediately practice skills in the simulation setting which were taught during the didactic sessions. Course participant demographic data (practice location and practice type) and participant evaluations were reported. Results: Since the first course in 2012, 298 participants have taken the post-graduate course. Most participants reported the content quality, delivery effectiveness, and practice relevance to be either excellent or above average (93.6 %, 91.1 %, 93.6 %, respectively). Participants' motivations to take the course included to enhance skills, knowledge, to incorporate US into practice, or to obtain formal training or qualification/certification, or to teach. Conclusion: The HPB US and Advanced Technology Post-Graduate Course has filled a gap in HPB US training for practicing HPB surgeons. The annual course has been well-received by participants (Kirkpatrick Level 1 Program Evaluation) and will continue to fill the gap in training in operative US for the HPB surgeon. Key message: Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association established the HPB Ultrasound and Advanced Technology Post-Graduate Course in 2012. The Course has been well-received by participants and will continue to address a gap in surgical HPB training.
