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

Introduction: Diversity, equality and belonging are important aspects within Allied Health Professional (AHP) groups. Mentoring is considered as a solution to improve career progression. To date, there is no consensus on what good mentoring looks like and whether current models are fit for purpose for Black and Minoritised Ethnicity AHPs. Methods: Scoping review to understand mentoring among Black and Minoritised Ethnicity (BME) AHPs through searches in four electronic databases using pre-defined criteria. Results: From 1440 studies screened, 2 studies were included in this review that researched mentoring for BME AHPs in a health and/or social care setting. Themes that emerged from the literature were related to access and amount of mentoring for BME AHPs, psychosocial mentoring may influence cross-race mentorship outcomes and organisational issues related to workforce pressures and management support. There is uncertainty around the importance of same race relationships in mentoring but there is some evidence that within cross-race mentoring this could influence outcomes. Conclusion: It is unknown if mentoring enables career success in BME AHPs. There is emerging evidence on the importance of psychosocial mentoring within cross-race relationships. Careful reflection and further research is needed on how current mentoring models work and ensure fair access to mentorship and support for BME AHPs.
