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

Success in pediatric cardiology fellowship requires a firm foundation in both the performance and interpretation of echocardiography. Recognizing this need, our institution introduced an “Echo Boot Camp” in 2009 to prepare incoming pediatric cardiology fellows for their first on-call echocardiograms and clinical experiences managing congenital heart disease. In this article, we describe the evolution of our institution’s echo boot camp over the past 17 years. We detail lessons learned, key elements, and technologies incorporated along the way to improve the educational experience. By sharing the history and essential components of our echo boot camp, we aim to provide a framework for other pediatric cardiology fellowships to construct or add to their own boot camps with many possible points of entry.
