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

Purpose: Research role-emerging placements (RREPs) have been integrated into placement offerings in Canadian physiotherapy programmes. The purpose of the present study is to describe the experiences and impacts of RREPs completed by graduates of Canadian physiotherapy programmes. Methods: Participants were recruited by purposive sampling and completed semi-structured interviews to explore their RREP experiences. Themes were identified using thematic analysis and collaboratively analyzed using the DEPICT model. Results: Eleven participants who completed RREPs during their Canadian physiotherapy programmes (three men, eight women; aged 26.9 [SD 2.7] years) took part in this study. The participants expressed the RREP was a valuable experience. Four themes emerged from the data: (1) Motivators for selecting an RREP included interest in research or a medical injury, (2) The RREP experience involved benefits and challenges, (3) Impacts of completing an RREP, and (4) RREP participant suggestions. Conclusions: RREPs are valuable placement opportunities for learners in Canadian physiotherapy programmes facilitating the development of essential competencies in a non-traditional setting. RREPs could be considered as a placement opportunity for other allied health programmes, as the skills gained are beneficial for all health care professionals.
