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

backgroundTransplant infectious disease (TID) training is not accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and is not standardized. Prior surveys of the training landscape in TID have focused on fellow responses; we sought description of programs from program directors and coordinators.

methodsAlong with the American Society of Transplantation (AST) Infectious Disease Community of Practice (IDCOP), we administered a survey to adult and pediatric ID training programs focusing on the structure, funding, curriculum, and outcomes of ID fellows participating in TID fellowships and tracks. This manuscript is a work product of the American Society of Transplantation's Education Committee.

resultsWe had 42 respondents representing 15 adult TID fellowships, 12 adult TID tracks, 4 pediatric TID fellowships, and 6 pediatric TID tracks. Adult TID fellowships required slightly more inpatient weeks than adult TID tracks: 26 versus 24 (p = 0.03). A majority of adult TID fellowships 10/14 (71%) rely on multiple sources of funding for their programs. A total of 67% of adult and 75% of pediatric TID fellowships have didactic curriculum, distinct from their general fellowship, and 53% of adult TID fellowships and no pediatric TID fellowships have distinct core competencies to evaluate TID fellows. Most TID fellows are pursuing TID-focused clinical careers.

conclusionsSubstantial heterogeneity exists among TID fellowships, and between fellowships and tracks. Future directions include updating prior guidance for adult and pediatric TID tracks and fellowships on curriculum, core competencies, and baseline requirements to ensure adequate competency in the care of these vulnerable patients.
