Virtues in Competency-Based Assessment Frameworks: A Text Analysis.
Article in Perspectives on medical education, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Official documentation of specialty training provides comprehensive and elaborate criteria to assess residents. These criteria are commonly described in terms of competency roles and entrustable professional activities (EPA's), but they may also Method: We applied a two-staged Results: Thirty virtues were identified in the ENT- training program. Amongst them, practical wisdom, temperance, and commitment. Furthermore, integrity, curiosity, flexibility, attentiveness, trustworthiness and calmness are often implicitly assumed. Notable findings are the emphasis on efficiency and effectiveness. Together, these virtues depict an ideal of a future medical specialist. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that competency-frameworks and EPA's implicitly appeal to virtues and articulate a specific ideal surgeon. Explicit attention for virtue development and discussion of the role and relevance of implied ideal professionals in terms of virtues could further improve specialty training.
