Structured, merit-based selection of radiology chief residents; a single center experience.
Article in BMC medical education, 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
Chief residents play a pivotal leadership role in postgraduate medical education. However, traditional seniority-based or informal selection practices may inadvertently miss out on essential qualities such as leadership and communication skills, professionalism, and peer trust. Evidence-based, merit-driven selection models in radiology, particularly from low- and middle-income country settings, remain scarce.Residents prioritize leadership, communication, professionalism, and advocacy over academic performance. Additionally, recent research demonstrates low awareness and limited perceived transparency of existing selection practices. Our aim, hence, is to develop and design a transparent, stakeholder-informed, merit-based chief resident selection framework in a radiology residency program.Implementation of a structured and contextually adaptable chief resident selection model can potentially offer a new and transformative approach to leadership selection in postgraduate radiology training, promoting meaningful, competency-based practices aligned with trainee expectations.
