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
Aim: The aim of this study was to develop quantitative outcome indicators for psychiatric training programs integrated into the General Medicine In-Training Examination (GM-ITE) and to investigate which characteristics correlate with high scores in psychiatry. Methods: A nationwide cross-sectional study was conducted over 3 fiscal years (2021-2023). An anonymous online questionnaire was distributed to postgraduate year 1 and 2 residents who completed the GM-ITE. The primary outcome was GM-ITE score, with a particular focus on psychiatry. Multiple-choice questions for the psychiatry field were created by board-certified psychiatrists with various subspecialties, then reviewed and piloted. Multiple regression analysis examined correlations between GM-ITE score and various resident and facility characteristics. Results: A total of 18,226 residents participated over the 3 years, of whom 5%-6% aspired to specialize in psychiatry. Quantitative scores were effective in the psychiatry field across all 3 years. Psychiatry aspirants had lower scores in internal medicine, emergency, and total scores but higher scores in psychiatry. Residents from university hospitals had lower psychiatry scores, while the number of psychiatry beds and supervising psychiatrists did not correlate with higher psychiatry scores. These findings indicate the need for psychiatric training programs distinct from general internal medicine and emergency training. Conclusion: Based on these quantitative psychiatry scores, this study highlights the necessity of improving physical assessment skills during residency for psychiatry aspirants, who score higher in psychiatry. Future research should identify effective training programs and facility practices that lead to higher psychiatry scores among residents, and thereby better integrate psychiatry into basic clinical skills.
