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
purposeTo evaluate an adolescent-centered pregnancy options counseling curriculum for pediatric residents.
methodsIn 2022, we assessed the curriculum in one residency by randomizing half the residents to a pretraining or posttraining Observed Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE). We scored the OSCE by 15-item rubric and analyzed results by Wilcoxon Rank-Sum tests. From 2022 to 2023, we implemented the curriculum across 3 residencies. Surveys assessed knowledge and self-rated abilities before, immediately after, and 6-month posttraining. Two residencies also surveyed controls. We analyzed results using mixed-effects and ordinal logistic regression.
results2022: 25 residents participated in the OSCE (13 pregroup, 12 post-group). Median score increased from 9/15 (interquartile range 8/15, 10/15) pretraining to 13/15 (13/15, 14/15) posttraining (p < .05). 2022-2023: Residents in the training arm completed presurveys (n = 79), immediate postsurveys (n = 65), and 6-month postsurveys (n = 40). Median baseline knowledge score was 57% (24%, 83%), which improved immediately posttraining [90% (81%, 95%), p < .05] and was sustained at 6 months [86% (57%, 90%), p < .05]. Median baseline self-rated ability to discuss pregnancy options was 8/12 (7/12, 9/12) and increased immediately posttraining [12/12 (10/12, 12/12), p < .05] with sustained improvement at 6 months [9/12 (8/12, 11/12), p < .05]. Median baseline self-rated ability to provide pregnancy-related referrals was 6/12 (5/12, 8/12) which improved posttraining [10/12 (9/12, 12/12), p < .05)] with sustained improvement at 6 months [8/12 (6/12, 9/12), p < .05]. Control residents completed presurveys (n = 140) and 6month postsurveys (n = 94). Trained residents performed better at 6 months on all measures (p < .05). DISCUSSION: Pregnancy options counseling training for pediatrics residents led to improved knowledge, abilities, and behavior.
