The Changing Landscape of Academic Anesthesiology Research Funding: Preliminary Insights from a National Survey.
Article in Cureus, 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
This national survey of academic anesthesiology researchers offers an important and timely window into the evolving landscape of scholarly activity within our specialty. Over the past decade, anesthesiology has experienced a convergence of stressors--declining federal and foundation funding, inconsistent institutional investment in research infrastructure, shifting scientific priorities, and escalating clinical demands--that collectively threaten the stability and future growth of the academic workforce. Over 50% of the anesthesiology workforce is over 55 years of age. Many of these physicians are approaching retirement, and the anesthesiology workforce is shrinking relative to clinical need and demand. This places enormous pressure on Academic Medical Centers (AMCs) to retain and recruit faculty to not only engage in research but also teach the next generation of anesthesiologists. The preliminary survey findings reflect a community that is deeply committed to advancing scientific inquiry but increasingly strained by structural and systemic challenges that impede productivity, innovation, and career development.
