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

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to identify the learning needs of emergency physicians returning to Emergency Medicine (EM) practice after clinical leaves of less than 2 years, summarize existing return to practice programs, and propose recommendations regarding ideal educational and support structures for these physicians both during their practice gaps and upon return to EM.

methodsA multiple-phased study was conducted to establish recommendations regarding ideal educational and support structures for emergency physicians returning from practice gaps of less than 2 years. The overall design involved an initial environmental scan of existing and exemplar programs and regulatory body positions, followed by interviews with EM Department Heads from across Canada, and then subsequent content analysis and recommendation derivation by EM medical education expert group consensus. These summary recommendations were further revised by consensus at the 2022 CAEP conference academic symposium to derive a final set of consensus recommendations.

conclusionsWe have developed a set of recommendations regarding ideal educational and support structures for physicians experiencing gaps in practice of less than 2 years. This set of recommendations was informed by review of existing and exemplar programs, policies and experience of regulatory bodies, interviews with EM Department Heads across Canada, and a subsequent process of consensus at the 2022 CAEP conference academic symposium. It is hoped that this set of recommendations will inform discussions and potential strategies employed by departments to facilitate the smooth and effective return to EM practice for individuals experiencing gaps.
