Neurosurgery training in Nepal: then and now.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Introduction: Neurosurgery training lacks uniformity across the world. Differences in the methods of training adopted during the training period is one of the major problems encountered in the field of neurosurgery all over the world. Moreover, neurosurgery is not "one neurosurgery"; in other words, it is not a unified whole. Material and methods: In this study, we attempt to evaluate the present conditions of neurosurgery training in Nepal by exploring different institutions providing the training. Results: Due to various factors and challenges, the neurosurgery training provided in Nepal varies in different institutions. Many travel abroad for training due to a lack of sufficient seats in training institutions. Discussion and conclusions: Despite the challenges, the future is bright for neurosurgery training in Nepal. With continued investment in education and training, and the adoption of new technologies and techniques, it is likely that the field of neurosurgery will continue to thrive and make a positive impact on the health and well-being of the Nepali population.
