Physician Trainees' Perception of Cannabidiol Use in Medicine: A Survey Study.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
purposeGiven the ongoing national opiate crisis, physicians have been challenged with mitigating the risk of opiate dependence in their patients. With current physician efforts to mitigate the risks of treating pain with opioid prescriptions, this study evaluates medical students' and residents' understanding and perceptions regarding cannabidiol (CBD) in current medical care and their future medical practice.
methodsOrthopedic residents from all American programs and medical students from 50 medical schools, regardless of training year or future specialty plans, were eligible to participate in this survey-based study administered from December 2022 to March 2023. The surveys ask questions about demographic information, what education they receive on CBD utilization in medicine, thoughts on CBD effectiveness in pain control, and future plans on utilizing CBD.
resultsA total of 55 residents (1.4%) and 53 medical students (5.1%) responded. Trainees in CBD-legal states were more likely to work with physicians who use CBD in their practice. Most trainees, regardless of location, believe CBD use has a stigma attached to it. Many responders were concerned about the role of CBD in pain control. Finally, most trainees believed that CBD is easy to access if desired and is affordable to purchase.
conclusionThe trajectory of CBD use in the United States indicates that the therapeutic benefits of CBD will be targeted, and future physicians are not always provided adequate educational opportunities to learn about its potential medical uses. Continued training as well as interactions with patients may help decrease the stigma surrounding medical CBD use and help solidify its therapeutic use in pain control.
