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
Under-represented in medicine (URM) trainees experience higher discrimination and attrition rates, increased depression and burnout. This is the first mentorship program developed for URM medical students, residents and fellows in Canada in radiation oncology to try and improve trainee well-being and inclusion. The Canadian Association of Radiation Oncology - Underrepresented in Radiation Oncology Mentorship Program (CARO-UROMP) was developed through materials adapted from the Association of Residents in Radiation Oncology's Equity and Inclusion Subcommittee. Mentees and mentors were paired based on a pre-program needs assessment. The program was administered for an 8-month duration. Pre and post-program surveys were sent to participants. Between September 2024 and April 2025, 11 mentees and 11 mentors participated. All mentees and mentors were satisfied/very satisfied (100%) with the mentorship program overall. The majority of mentees (87.5%) felt that their mentors were approachable, timely, supportive and listened to their thoughts. Most (75%) were satisfied/very satisfied with career support including jobs and networking advice. For research support, most mentees (62.5%) were satisfied/very satisfied on guidance on research/grant applications and manuscript writing. All mentors agreed/strongly agreed that they were able to improve their mentees' confidence, sense of community and inclusion within RO and that they were able to motivate their mentee to reach their objectives. All mentor/mentee pairs wanted to continue their mentorship relationship. The inaugural year of the CARO-UROMP mentorship program was successful with very high rates of satisfaction. Given the positive impact of the program, the Canada-wide program will look to expand in the future.
