Supervision, scheduling, satisfaction and shared working: how experiences of junior doctors relate to excess mortality within the NHS.

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
backgroundWe sought to explore associations between trainee doctor perception and excess patient mortality.
methodsData from two publicly available databases reflecting mortality and components of trainee satisfaction within 81 NHS healthcare institutions between the years 2012 and 2019 were analysed. Pearson's correlation coefficients were calculated.
resultsAll domains of trainee perception were correlated with excess mortality. Clinical supervision out of hours (R=-0.44; p<0.0001), teamwork (R=-0.36; p<0.0001) and clinical supervision at any time (R=-0.35; p<0.0001) were most strongly correlated. Most associations remained consistent year on year.
conclusionTrainee doctor perceptions of clinical supervision, rota design and teamwork within the NHS are consistently correlated with excess patient mortality. Further exploration of these associations could identify opportunities for interventions to reduce excess patient mortality. Given the clinical significance of our findings, organisations should consider rapid implementation of evidence-based interventions where they exist.
