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

introductionLeadership is a key skill for physicians, but studies show that many junior doctors feel unprepared for the role as a leader. In recent years, there has been increasing interest and research into the training and development of clinical leadership, revolving around leadership in situations with direct patient care and as opposed to the administrative leadership of a department. However, the lack of consensus on how best to teach leadership, how the education should be structured, as well as a standardized definition and measure for good leadership, complicates training, assessment, and comparison of approaches in both research and education.

objectiveThe aim of this study is to map out the existing body of research on leadership education for physicians and medical students and identify any gaps in this literature.

methodsThe scoping review will follow the Arksey and O'Malley (Arksey and O'Malley, Int J Soc Res Methodol. 2005; 8(1):19-32) framework, Joanna Briggs Institute methodology (JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis-JBI Global Wiki) and PRISMA_ScR (Tricco et al., Ann Intern Med. 2018; 169(7):467-473). A systematic search will be conducted across the following databases: PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Ebsco, Medline, and Google scholar. Two independent reviewers will screen titles and abstracts, then review the full texts of articles. Data will be extracted and presented in line with the review questions. STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY: The study will use a structured approach, as guided by Arksey and O'Malley and JBI methodology. Studies not written in English, Danish, German, Swedish, and Norwegian will be translated using available software. This review will not include a formal assessment of the study quality or meta-analysis, as it is a scoping review.
