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

backgroundMany stakeholders contribute to effective training environments for surgical residents, including program administrators and nursing staff. This study evaluates associations of hospital support staff with trainee educational time and wellness.

methodsData were collected via confidential voluntary survey of vascular trainees, who were asked about support staff interactions and protected educational time. Responses were recorded on a five-point Likert scale and dichotomized as positive or negative. Multivariable clustered logistic regression was used to evaluate the associations of support staff with educational time and educational time with burnout. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to adjust for experiences of mistreatment.

resultsOf 427 trainees with complete data for items of interest (62% response rate), most responded positively to questions of support staff and educational time. On multivariable analysis of associations with support staff, reporting that programs had adequate staffing and clear division of labor were significant predictors for satisfaction with education (odds ratio (OR) 7.0, P < 0.001, and OR 6.3, P < 0.001, respectively). Those who were satisfied with education had lower odds of burnout (OR 0.25, P < 0.001) and thoughts of attrition (OR 0.15, P < 0.001).

conclusionTrainees with positive support staff relationships were more likely to be satisfied with their education, and satisfaction with education was associated with increased wellness. Addressing sources of mistreatment will likely improve the educational experience. Future work should incorporate support staff experiences to promote successful team-based care.
