Identification of opportunities for strategic expansion of anesthesiology training programs.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center). 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
The rising demand for anesthesia services amidst a growing US population requires evaluation of how anesthesiology residency programs are geographically aligned with population centers. Despite the critical role of anesthesiologists in perioperative care, it remains unclear whether training capacity and location are optimized across regions. The primary aim of the study was to investigate national trends in anesthesiology residency program distribution to identify metro areas that could provide additional training capacity. Anesthesiology residency programs and number of positions were identified through the Association of American Medical Colleges and Doximity. Programs were linked to metropolitan statistical areas. The number of anesthesia residents per 100,000 people in each metro area was determined. Cities with populations over 1 million and no anesthesiology residency program were flagged as underutilized. Anesthesiology training density varied across metro areas, ranging from 0.4 to 30 anesthesiology residents per 100,000 people, with a national average of 7.3 per 100,000. Five metro areas were identified as underutilized, representing potential areas for strategic expansion with opportunity for high-impact growth. Targeted development in underutilized but high-growth metro areas may improve access to academic perioperative care, support workforce development, and better align graduate medical education with population needs.
