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

Background: Continuing medical education in liver transplantation is pivotal in enhancing the proficiency of liver surgeons. The goal of this study is to obtain information on all aspects of the training, enable us to pinpoint the training's strengths, and address any shortcomings or challenges. Method: We conducted an online questionnaire survey, which was comprised of 33 questions, offering response options in the form of "yes/no", single choice, or multiple choice. Results: A total of 59 liver surgeons actively participated in the questionnaire survey. The majority of them exhibited a comprehensive understanding of the liver transplant training program, encompassing its structure, content, and assessment format. It is noteworthy that all respondents expressed keen interest in novel course components such as medical humanities, interpersonal communication, full-process patient management, and scientific research and academic activities. The overall satisfaction with the diverse specialized training courses was notably high. Furthermore, there was a significant improvement in self-confidence among participants for performing relevant clinical practices post-training, signifying the effectiveness of the program. Notably, key determinants influencing physicians' confidence levels before and after training included accumulated clinical practice time, basic operation cases, and educational background. Conclusion: This survey reveals that trainees possess a commendable grasp of the program, maintain a positive outlook, and gain substantial benefits from the training. Importantly, it underscores the need to enhance the pedagogical skills of professional training instructors, continually refine the curriculum, and serve as a foundation for informed decisions in the ongoing training of liver transplant physicians.
