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

Awareness of trends in compensation and clinical productivity are important, especially in a competitive market for hiring radiologists. This study shows that in the last decade, clinical productivity as measured by median Work Relative Value Units for academic neuroradiologists remained greater (by 30%-40%) than for academic diagnostic radiologists overall throughout the study period. The median compensation for academic neuroradiologists remains approximately 20% less than that for nonacademic neuroradiologists. The median compensation increased at a faster rate for academic neuroradiologists (4.1% annually) than for nonacademic neuroradiologists (1.8% annually), similar to the trend for diagnostic radiologists overall, but the compensation increase across time has barely kept pace with inflation. Further studies are needed to address cuts in reimbursements for neuroimaging studies and the impact on clinical productivity and physician labor market dynamics.
