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

AIMS AND

methodNeuropsychiatry training in the UK currently lacks a formal scheme or qualification, and its demand and availability have not been systematically explored. We conducted the largest UK-wide survey of psychiatry trainees to examine their experiences in neuropsychiatry training.

resultsIn total, 185 trainees from all UK training regions completed the survey. Although 43.6% expressed interest in a neuropsychiatry career, only 10% felt they would gain sufficient experience by the end of training. Insufficient access to clinical rotations was the most common barrier, with significantly better access in London compared with other regions. Most respondents were in favour of additional neurology training (83%) and a formal accreditation in neuropsychiatry (90%). CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Strong trainee interest in neuropsychiatry contrasts with the limited training opportunities currently available nationally. Our survey highlights the need for increased neuropsychiatry training opportunities, development of a formalised training programme and a clinical accreditation pathway for neuropsychiatry in the UK.
