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
objectiveThis study aimed to explore the perceptions of French residents and academic teachers regarding residents' autonomy during training and their preparedness to perform standard gynecological procedures.
methodsA national survey of French obstetrics and gynecology residents and their academic teachers was conducted using an online questionnaire distributed in 2023, which gathered opinions on the level of autonomy granted in the operating room for performing standard gynecological procedures and perceptions of preparedness upon graduation. The survey also examined perceptions on the impact of factors that improve surgical autonomy.
resultsThe response rate was 43% (510/1197) for residents and 31% (42/137) for academic teachers. The opinions of residents and academic teachers regarding residents' surgical preparedness by graduation were similar, except for vaginal hysterectomy (30% vs. 57%, P < 0.001). Residents were thought prepared to perform hysteroscopy and adnexal surgery by laparoscopy by >90% of respondents. Regarding hysterectomy, opinions varied depending on the approach: the only approach for which more than two-thirds of residents (67%) were thought to be prepared by gradation was laparoscopy. Regarding factors promoting surgical autonomy, 99% of residents and 97% of teachers considered case volume and coaching quality essential. Only 37% of residents and 55% of teachers deemed the introduction of summative assessment relevant.
conclusionFrench residents and academic teachers reported adequate preparedness for hysteroscopy and adnexal surgery. There were concerns regarding preparedness for more complex surgeries, particularly laparotomic and vaginal hysterectomy. These findings underscore the need for revisions in training methods and residency objectives.
