Research productivity among applicants who matched into an integrated thoracic surgery residency program: A bibliographic review.
Article in JTCVS open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Research productivity is an important factor in candidate selection by integrated thoracic surgery residency programs, and thus tracking the research output of applicants who match into an integrated program is necessary. This study sought to examine the research productivity of matched integrated applicants prior to residency and to assess demographic, bibliographic, and institutional variables associated with continued research productivity during residency. Methods: Bibliographic records of applicants who matched into an integrated thoracic surgery residency program from 2015 to 2022 were reviewed manually (eg, PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Google Scholar, ResearchGate) to identify studies published up to January 2024. Publications were stratified by publication type and first authorship relative to the applicants' match year. Individuals were analyzed by demographics, medical school ranking, and affiliated residency program research infrastructure. Results: A total of 300 matched integrated applicants were identified. Among applicants who matched into an integrated program, the number of total ( Conclusions: Research productivity among applicants who matched into an integrated thoracic surgery residency program from 2015 to 2022 has increased and is a strong predictor of sustained scholarly output during residency.
