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
backgroundSimulation-based training is gaining importance in urologic residents training.
objectivesThis prospective study evaluated the influence of the Endo Workshop of the German Society of Residents in Urology e. V. (GeSRU) on surgical confidence. MATERIALS AND
methodsGeSRU Endo Workshop 2022 included 1 h simulation-based training sessions on stone removal using ureteroscopy (URS) and transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB). Using an online questionnaire, surgical confidence was assessed before and after the workshop. Surgical assessment relied on the global rating scale (GRS).
resultsOverall, 40 residents participated: 25 (62.5%) men and 15 (37.5%) women. In URS assessment, men vs. women achieved an average of 26.6 vs. 26.1/35 points on the GRS (p = 0.7) and completed the task in 8.1 ± 1.9 vs. 9.9 ± 0.4 min (p < 0.001). In TURB assessment, men vs. women achieved an average of 26.0 vs. 27.3/35 points on the GRS (p = 0.3) and required 7.6 ± 1.9 vs. 7.7 ± 2.2 min (p = 0.9), respectively. Among participants who answered the baseline survey and the evaluation (n = 33), 16 (80%) men vs. 3 (23%) women had surgical confidence to perform URS before (p = 0.01), and 19 (95%) men vs. 7 (54%) women after the workshop (p = 0.03). Regarding the performance of TURB, 10 (50%) men vs. 7 (54%) women reported surgical confidence before (p = 0.1), and 15 (75%) men vs. 10 (77%) women after the workshop (p = 1.0). An increase in surgical confidence to perform URS and TURB was reported by 9 (45%) and 10 (50%) men and 9 (69%) and 8 (62%) women, respectively.
conclusionsEndourologic simulation-based training increases surgical confidence of both female and male residents. Despite comparable surgical outcomes, women approach URS with lower surgical confidence compared to their male counterparts.
