Musculoskeletal Radiology Education: A National Survey by the Italian College of Musculoskeletal Radiology.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundOur aim was to understand how musculoskeletal training is structured in Italian residency programmes and the needs of young trainees.
methodsWe sent out an online questionnaire (17 questions) to Italian Society of Radiology residents and board-certified radiologists aged up to 39 years.
resultsA total of 1144 out of 4210 (27.2%) members participated in the survey; 64.7% were residents and 35.3% were board-certified radiologists. Just 26.6% of participants had dedicated rotations for musculoskeletal training during their residency, although this percentage substantially increased in replies from northern Italy. One-fourth of residents had a scheduled period of musculoskeletal ultrasound. Most participants (76.3%) had <20 h per year of musculoskeletal lessons. The majority considered their musculoskeletal education poor (57.7%) or average (21.9%). According to 84.8% of replies, no dedicated training period about interventional musculoskeletal procedures was scheduled. Further, just 12.8% of residents took active part in such interventions. Nearly all participants believed that the musculoskeletal programme during residency needs to be improved, particularly concerning practices in ultrasound (92.8%), MRI cases interpretation/reporting (78.9%), and practice in ultrasound-guided interventional procedures (64.3%).
conclusionsDespite some differences in the structure of musculoskeletal education provided by different regions, there is a shared demand for improvement in musculoskeletal training.
