Is Surgical Training Prepared for the "Second Wave" of COVID-19? A Collaborative Perspective.
Article in Annals of surgery open : perspectives of surgical history, education, and clinical approaches, 2021. 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
Restructuring of surgical services during the 'first wave' of the coronavirus-disease 2019 pandemic led to significant disruption in surgical learning opportunities provided to junior surgeons. Recent challenges faced by trainees have never been faced before. These include disruption to surgical opportunities available, completing assessments and attending educational events. With a 'second wave' now upon the United Kingdom it is vitally important we reflect upon the 'first wave' to ensure junior surgeons are able to achieve appropriate surgical case numbers, complete assessments and progress to the next stage of training. Alternate assessment methods in the United Kingdom need to be considered should the pandemic continue and clear information should be provided to surgical trainees regarding career progression. These are difficult times for surgical training and we need to endeavor that trainees are provided with opportunities similar to their predecessors albeit in difficult circumstances. This is to ensure the future standard of surgical patient care remains of the highest standard.
