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
introductionThis study assesses the accessibility and nature of parental leave policies during orthopaedic surgery residency training after implementation of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (GME) mandate for 6 weeks of paid parental leave effective July of 2022. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn audit of orthopaedic surgery residency and affiliated GME websites was conducted to assess the accessibility of parental leave policies during the 2023-2024 academic year. Details on length of leave and nature of renumeration during the leave were recorded. Bivariate analyses were conducted to determine residency program characteristics associated with the accessibility of a parental leave policy. Results were compared with a previous analysis during the 2017-2018 academic year.
resultsA total of 200 residency programs were evaluated, and 152 had parental leave policies (76.0%). Compared with 2017 to 2018, a similar percentage of parental leave policies were accessible on residency program websites (3.0% vs. 2.0%, P = 0.777) but fewer were accessible on GME websites (55.5% vs. 80.7%, P < 0.001). More contemporary policies were obtained from program coordinators (18.5% vs. 7.2%, P = 0.003), and more were not available (24.0% vs. 9.0%, P < 0.001). Most policies offered renumeration (86.7%) and leave for 6 weeks in length (75.0%). A higher prevalence of parental leave policy accessibility was found among orthopaedic residency programs with university affiliation (P < 0.001), more faculty members (P = 0.008) and residents (P = 0.017), a higher percentage of female faculty (P = 0.008), affiliation with a top 50 ranked National Institutes of Health-funded orthopaedic surgery department, and accreditation achieved before 2017 to 2018 (P = 0.004). DISCUSSION: Most orthopaedic surgery residency programs do not have accessible parental leave policies on their websites. The new Accreditation Council for GME mandate will require orthopaedic residency programs to provide residents with 6 weeks of paid parental leave during residency training. Accessible policies may be useful to applicants interested in child rearing during orthopaedic residency training.
