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

The burden of cirrhosis and chronic liver disease is growing, yet there is a projected worsening deficit in hepatology providers. As such, cirrhosis and liver disease have been important inclusions within the core curricula of Internal Medicine. Formal assessments of provider preparedness resulting from the curriculum are lacking though. Prior studies have demonstrated that exposure to cirrhosis in undergraduate medical education is insufficient, as are learner comfort and self-reported knowledge levels. These findings are further corroborated by a multicenter survey of incoming Internal Medicine interns showing that subjective comfort with and objective knowledge of various liver disease topics are lacking compared to other common Internal Medicine topics. This paper also demonstrates how similar surveys may be used to identify additional topics that may require adjustments for curricular improvement.
