Educational needs and training conditions of young clinical neurophysiologists: survey of IFCN-young neurophysiologists network.
Review in Clinical neurophysiology practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objectives: In 2022, the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) launched the Young Neurophysiologists Network to support the representation of its younger members. This survey assessed the training of early-career clinical neurophysiologists and identify unmet needs. Methods: A 31-item online questionnaire was distributed to IFCN members under 40 years of age, evaluating educational goals, mentorship, expertise levels, and preferences for e-learning. Results: From 57 countries 331 participants responded. Marked regional differences emerged in training quality, confidence, and needs. In high-income countries, satisfaction with core modules-EEG, ENG-EMG, and video-EEG-was highest, while lower ratings were reported in low-income countries, especially for EEG. Training priorities also varied: neuromuscular ultrasound was the most requested topic in both high- and middle-income countries, while low-income countries prioritized video-EEG and evoked potentials. Mentorship significantly improved continued training. Online education was used by 58%, with 64% preferring IFCN Masterclasses. Conclusion: Young neurophysiologists show strong interest in advanced training, particularly in neuromuscular ultrasound. Expanding mentorship and access to IFCN resources could help address global disparities. Significance: This survey highlights significant regional differences in young neurophysiologists' training and underscores the need to expand mentorship and equitable access to advanced educational resources.
