Strategies and Best Practices for Engaging Urology Residents in Clinical Research during Training.
Review in Current urology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purpose of reviewIn this review, we will explore the benefits of urology resident participation in research during training and identify the common barriers for residents to engage in scholarly activity. Most importantly, we aim to discuss strategies to foster engagement in research during urology residency training despite time constraints, resource limitations, and competing clinical demands. RECENT
findingsRecent literature on the topic highlights that while urology residency programs require some form of scholarly activity, few offer extended dedicated research time and there is no minimum requirement for promotion or graduation across programs. Protected research time, structured curricula, and available mentorship are associated with increased research productivity. Encouraging innovative approaches such as longitudinal research exposure and integrated research didactics, incentivization and reward culture, fostering high-quality mentorship, and standardizing expectations have shown some success in improving publication rates and promoting conference presentations. The benefits of residents participating in research during training include refined clinical thinking, promotion of evidence-based practice, and facilitating academic career opportunities. We hope to offer a roadmap for programs and educators to consider how to cultivate the culture of inquiry needed to promote resident research engagement without the need to extend training. By starting this conversation, we aim to inspire urology training programs to prioritize research integration in a way that prepares residents to contribute meaningfully to scientific advancement and ultimately improve patient care.
