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

aimsMistreatment in the learning environment is associated with adverse outcomes for residents. Most studies with that regard have been performed in western countries which may have different socio-cultural background and educational and training systems than the non-Western Asian countries. This study aimed (1) to determine the national prevalence of mistreatment in Thai paediatric residents and a correlation with the risk for burnout and other factors and (2) to launch a mistreatment awareness program (MAP) in our training program.

methodsThe study was divided into two phases. Phase 1, an online survey of mistreatment-related questions, was sent to current paediatric residents across the country. Burnout and depression were also self-evaluated by formal screening questions. The results were categorized by the Negative Acts Questionnaire-Revised into five domains of mistreatment: workplace learning-related bullying (WLRB), person-related bullying (PRB), physically intimidating bullying, sexual harassment, and ethnic harassment. Frequent mistreated exposure was defined as if mistreatment occurred >1/week. Phase 2, MAP was conducted by distributing the results of the first phase with some examples of mistreatment events and mistreatment-related videos. After 3 months, at our centre, the survey was resent to evaluate mistreatment.

resultsThe response rate was 27% (

conclusionsThai paediatric residents frequently perceive mistreatment in their learning environment. Specific aspects of mistreatment, such as WLRB and PRB, should be carefully explored and managed through particular groups of instigators.
