Assessment of the Study Habits of Residents in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Programs in Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Advances in medical education and practice, 2023. 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
Background: Residents in training must employ a variety of study strategies, as they not only participate in academic studies but also interact with patients. This study aimed to evaluate the study practices and factors affecting those practices among Saudi Arabian physical medicine and rehabilitation residents during their residency program. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a previously used questionnaire was distributed to Saudi Arabian physiatry residents from July 1 to August 15, 2022, via a social media platform and completed using a Google Forms survey. A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet was used to collect, clean, and import the data before IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 22.0 was utilized for statistical analysis. Results: The data of 94.91% of respondents were included in the analysis. Individuals who were female, unmarried or divorced, and without children predominated. Only 17.9% (n = 10) of the residents believed that their training program effectively prepared them to pass the board examination, which was the most strongly motivating factor for studying for 85.7% of respondents. Over two-thirds of the residents mentioned that they regularly exercise. Residents who studied more than 11 hours per week had a significantly lower score in the category of factors that negatively affect examination performance (M = 12.33 ± 2.82, F = 2.794, P < 0.05). Females, final-year residents, and Riyadh residents studied more than their counterparts. Conclusion: Our study is the first to investigate how Saudi physiatrists study, with the finding that current physiatry residents employ a combination of traditional and contemporary learning strategies. This information can help stakeholders to understand current training challenges, improve the quality of training for physiatry residents, and create an ideal learning environment.
