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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesIn 2020, the Association of Family Medicine Residency Directors (AFMRD) Diversity and Health Equity (DHE) Task Force developed and piloted a framework to measure diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in medical residencies across five domains: curriculum, evaluation, institution, resident pathway, and faculty pathway. The objectives were (1) to measure DEI initiatives across multiple domains in family medicine residencies using the DEI milestones and (2) to obtain current national baseline data providing criteria against which to measure effectiveness of initiatives and create tailored benchmarks.

methodsWe developed a cross-sectional survey of 12 quantitative residency characteristic items and the five DEI milestone ratings, and distributed the survey to program directors of family medicine residencies accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education in the spring of 2022. We generated descriptive statistics, including item frequencies and cross-tabulations, and completed subgroup comparisons with analysis of variance.

resultsWe collected aggregate milestone data for 194 family medicine residencies of 588 eligible programs (33% response rate). Respondents represented 48 states and US territories: 107 community-based, university-affiliated; 48 community-based; 34 university-based; and 5 military/other programs. Overall, the curriculum milestone was rated the highest (mean=2.54, SD=1.03), whereas the faculty pathway (mean=1.94, SD=1.04) and resident pathway (mean=2.02, SD=1.06) milestones were rated lowest.

conclusionsDEI milestone data may support residency programs as they assess their institution's developmental progress across five key domains. Additionally, aggregate data may shed light on collective strengths and areas for improvement.
