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: To report a 2022 survey of US medical school neurology clerkship directors (CDs) and to compare the results with those of similar surveys conducted in 2005, 2012, and 2017. Methods: An American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Consortium of Neurology Clerkship Directors (CNCD) workgroup developed the survey sent to all neurology CDs listed in the AAN CNCD database. Comparisons were made with 2005, 2012, and 2017 surveys. Results: The response rate was 72 (47%) of 152 CDs. The number of respondents reporting a required neurology clerkship has not significantly changed over the past 17 years (93%, 93%, 94%, and 96% for 2005, 2012, 2017, and 2022, respectively, Discussion: Neurology clerkships remained resilient in the United States through the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic with demonstrated consistency in structure, curriculum, and administration. There has been a continued increase in the requirement of the clerkship as a 4-week clinical experience. The needs persist for more clerkship coordinator support and more protected time for neurology CDs. Despite high satisfaction, most of the respondents have experienced burnout for a variety of reasons, including lack of protected time and competing obligations.
