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

backgroundGender equality and the empowerment of women is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals formulated by the United Nations. Gender-specific inequalities still exist, especially in medicine. Women are particularly lacking in leadership positions and in visible roles outside of patient care, such as at conferences and in scientific journals.

aimThe aim of the study was to analyse the proportion of women in leadership positions in emergency medicine and the visible roles at emergency medicine conferences and scientific journals. MATERIALS AND

methodsA selective literature search in PubMed and an evaluation of the conference programmes from 2020-2021 as well as the editorial boards of journals were conducted with regard to the proportion of women.

resultsWomen continue to be significantly underrepresented on the editorial boards of emergency medicine journals and on the boards of leading emergency medicine organisations. Internationally, there are already programmes to increase the proportion of women in field of publications and scientific conferences; to date, there are only a few such programmes for women in emergency medicine in Germany.

conclusionWomen in healthcare in general and in emergency medicine in particular are not equally represented outside of patient care. To date, there are hardly any programmes to promote women in emergency medicine in Germany. Mentoring, collegial support and organisational change are key to increasing the proportion of women in nonpatient care roles in emergency medicine.
