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
Background: Literature from procedural specialties reveals gender differences amongst trainees regarding work-life balance, career goals, and workplace discrimination. Purpose: To determine the impact of gender on gastroenterology resident experiences. Methods: A 70-question cross-sectional survey was electronically disseminated to gastroenterology trainees across Canada. Survey questions addressed personal, professional, financial, and training characteristics. Comparisons were made between self-identified men and women. Wilcoxon test was used for continuous variables. Chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test were applied for categorical variables. Qualitative thematic analysis was applied for short answer responses with 2 independent reviewers. Results: Forty-four trainees were surveyed, with 41% women. At work, women were more likely to have their clinical competency challenged than men (35% vs 8%, Conclusion: Gender-related differences exist amongst Canadian gastroenterology trainees regarding work-life balance and career advancement. Women may benefit from supports to allow them to meet career goals which are similar to their male peers.
