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 and Objectives: Previous research has demonstrated that simulation-based medical education (SBME) can improve neurology trainees' confidence, knowledge, and competence. However, a general needs assessment and review of current SBME used within neurology are needed to guide SBME curriculum development. The objective of this study was to describe the current use of SBME in resident education and to assess perceived barriers to expanding SBME interventions. Methods: We surveyed adult neurology residency program directors (PDs) listed in the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education directory using a Qualtrics-based survey platform. Survey questions addressed current utilization of SBME and barriers to SBME growth. Results: Seventy-five PDs of 171 contactable PDs responded to our survey (response rate 44%). Of the respondents, 84% (64/75) report using SBME in their adult neurology residencies. Of those using SBME, 87% (55/64) programs create their own cases. Most programs use simulation to teach neurocritical care topics (63%) and vascular neurology (78%); few use simulation to teach outpatient topics and teleneurology. Among programs that use SBME, there was variability in the frequency of the SBME interventions and in the target trainee cohort. Among responding programs, most expressed interest in expanding SBME in their curriculum (69%, 52/64), but frequently cited lack of faculty protected time (55%), funding (35%), and resident availability (32%) as barriers to doing so. Discussion: Most responding programs use SBME. However, the frequency and target learner for SBME interventions varied between programs. Many programs wish to expand SBME at their institutions but are constrained by limited protected time and institutional financial support. We discuss potential solutions to the perceived barriers to SBME, including intra-institutional collaboration to advance SBME use and case diversity for learners and help innovate neurology medical education.
