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 purposeThe neuroradiology job market is constantly changing along with the skill sets needed by fellowship graduates to participate successfully in the job market. This study aimed to establish a baseline of employer requirements in the neuroradiology job market within the study timeframe. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe American Society of Neuroradiology and American College of Radiology job boards were queried for neuroradiology positions between August 12, 2022, and December 31, 2022. The positions and requirements were categorized into academic versus private practice, general diagnostic radiology, full-subspecialized neuroradiology, hybrid remote/onsite, outpatient, inpatient/emergency, general interventional radiology procedures, and neuroradiology procedures. Exclusion criteria included neurointerventional only, remote-only, pediatric-only, no preference for neuroradiology, and duplicate posts within and between the job boards.

resultsOf 1777 total job posts, 179 were neuroradiology-specific and the remainder were general. Of the 179 neuroradiology-specific jobs, 55 neuroradiology jobs were academic and 124 jobs were private practice. A higher proportion of private practice jobs required general diagnostic interpretations (83% versus 26%), a higher proportion of academic jobs required neuroradiology procedures (56% versus 31%), and a higher proportion of private practice jobs required general interventional radiology procedures (22% versus 0%). Thirty-nine percent of all neuroradiology-specific onsite jobs required neuroradiology procedures, and 15% required general interventional radiology procedures.

conclusionsBecause there was a sizable difference between general radiology and procedure requirements between academic and private practice positions, tailoring fellowship training for career aspirations of neuroradiology fellows should be considered to adapt to the skills needed for the evolving job market. In the queried timeframe, 61% of neuroradiology-specific onsite jobs did not have a specific procedure skill requirement for job applicants. This article serves as a single snapshot of the job market and its requirements for neuroradiologists, to aid in planning training to meet the needs of employers.
