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
Introduction: In response to accreditation bodies requiring health disparities curricula, medical educators are tasked with incorporating structural competency, the understanding of how social and structural barriers like structural racism impact health, into their teaching. Most have not received training in this area, yet there remains a scarcity of faculty development curricula to address this gap. We describe the creation, implementation, and evaluation of a faculty development workshop series rooted in the framework of structural competency. Methods: We delivered four 90-minute workshops at an urban academic medical center from March through April of 2021. Workshops were offered to interdisciplinary faculty. We evaluated this workshop series with a pre- and postintervention survey assessing attitudes and confidence, and a postintervention satisfaction survey. Data analysis was conducted using a paired Results: A total of 206 participants attended at least one workshop within the series, and 20 participants completed both pre- and postintervention surveys. Participants overwhelmingly recommended these workshops to their colleagues and had significant increases in overall attitudes (3.3 vs. 3.6, Discussion: Our application of structural competency to faculty workshops and teaching tools feasibly engages faculty in instruction to incorporate concepts of structural racism and the downstream effects of social determinants of health into clinical teaching. It represents an innovative tool as we seek to enhance clinical teaching to improve care for racially and ethnically minoritized communities.
