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

purposeThe primary objective of this study was to establish a benchmark by collecting baseline data on surgical education in obstetrics and gynecology in Germany, including factual number of operations performed. MATERIALS AND

methodsA nationwide anonymous survey was conducted in Germany between January 2019 and July 2019 utilizing a specially designed questionnaire which addressed both residents and senior trainers.

resultsA total of 601 participants completed the survey, comprising 305 trainees and 296 trainers. The trainees reported performing a median of 125 non-obstetric surgeries (IQR: 41-332) and 75 obstetric procedures (IQR: 27-168) independently. While most last-year residents managed to meet the targeted numbers for minor surgical procedures outlined in the logbook, they fell short of achieving the required numbers for major operations, such as hysterectomies or more complex laparoscopies. Although both trainees and trainers emphasized the significance of surgical training, the overall quality of the training was rated poorly, particularly by trainees. This was attributed to a high proportion of administrative tasks and a deficiency in teaching time within the operating theater. External fellowship and mentoring programs, as well as the implementation of regular, centralized reviews of residency training, were identified as potentially beneficial by both trainees and trainers.

conclusionThe findings of this survey should serve as a wake-up call both within and outside of Germany, highlighting the importance of comprehensive and structured surgical training to enhance long-term patient care and increase satisfaction among obstetrics and gynecology trainees.
