An Innovative Resource to Guide and Track Medical Resident Activity and Wellness During At-Home Assignments.
Article in Cureus, 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 and objectives Medical residents may work from home for various reasons, including study electives, isolation due to exposure to illness, or during parental leave when they choose to work at home instead of taking extended time off. The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Little Rock Family Medicine residency program recognized the need for a tool that provided residents with a list of resources and approved activities for at-home work and a means of tracking their performance in those activities. Methods The administration team at the UAMS Little Rock Family Medicine residency program custom-designed a Daily Activities Log that served multiple purposes. Family medicine residents used it to choose what activities to participate in from a comprehensive list of activities and resources including virtual conferences, recorded didactics, modules, and other online materials. The program provided the framework on the log, while residents used it to document time spent on those activities. The log also gave the program a daily update on the resident's health, as one question specifically asked about well-being. Since it was built in an electronic survey format already owned by the residency program, it was completely customizable and available at no additional cost. Results In the two years covered by this project, residents logged a total of 593 hours of at-home work. In response to a survey, 76% of participating residents (N=14) rated the log as extremely or very easy to use; 64% indicated that it was a helpful resource; and 50% said that it simplified the reporting of their daily status. The residency program faculty found that having one source to track all off-site residents was an efficient means of monitoring their well-being and their work. Conclusions The Daily Activities Log is a versatile tool that provides comprehensive information, resources, and approved activities for residents, documents their work, and provides updates to residency management. It can be readily modified for use in other programs that have residents working at home.
