Thirty-five years of the French Association of Urologists in Training (AFUF) a scoping review and bibliometric analysis of scientific literature conducted by urologists in training.
Article in World journal of urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThe objective of this scoping review was to identify the topics of research and the types of studies published by the French Association of Urologists in Training (AFUF) since it was created, 35 years ago and to perform a bibliometric analysis.
methodsA scoping review on PubMed, Google scholar, Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE) was conducted from 1989 until the 31st of December 2023. The PRISMA extended guidelines for scoping reviews were followed. Articles were independently screened and analyzed by two reviewers. The theme type, primary results, language of publication, number of male and female authors and number of citations from each included article were extracted.
resultsA total of 32 articles were included among which 17 surveys and 11 cohort studies. There was a median percentage of 20% women among authors. Fifteen articles (47%) were published in French and 17 articles in English. The median number of citations was 4.5. The topics covered were urologist in training's surgical education, well-being, professional practice, and urologic emergencies: renal trauma and spermatic cord torsion. The creation of large national databases enabled the generation of multiple studies focusing on previously under-represented topics.
conclusionOver the 35 years since it was created, The AFUF has had an interesting and prolific scientific output. It has shown its concerns for urologists in training.
