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

Objective: Women have been underrepresented in academic medicine and surgical fields. This study aimed to describe the gender distribution in academic rhinology and investigate otolaryngology departmental factors associated with female rhinologists representation. Study design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: American Medical Association (AMA) FREIDA database, American Rhinologic Society database, and online search. Methods: We identified fellowship-trained rhinologists from institutional searches of residency programs identified from the AMA FREIDA database. Demographic and academic data of each rhinologist were extracted from online search. Departmental characteristics were obtained from the FREIDA database and institutional websites. The associations between female rhinologists representation and departmental factors were assessed using logistic regression analyses. Results: Among 224 fellowship-trained rhinologists, female comprised 26.8%. There were more female assistant professors (55.0% vs 39.6%) and fewer full professors (10.0% vs. 24.4%) than their male counterparts ( Conclusion: The proportion of female rhinologists decreased significantly as they advanced through academic rank. The main driver for female rhinologists representation is the increased number of female faculty in the department. There should be increased efforts to promote female mentorship and women in leadership positions.
