ATS BEAR Cage: 10 years of building education to advance research with innovation, competition, and fun.
Article in ATS scholar, 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
Beginning in 2014, the American Thoracic Society (ATS) launched the Building Education to Advance Research (BEAR) Cage competition, with the first in-person competition held in 2015. Organized and run by the ATS Drug/Device Discovery and Development Committee, the BEAR Cage competition is structured as a " pitch competition" where early career investigators submit streamlined proposals for out-of-the-box and potentially transformative ideas, and the 3 top proposals are invited to attend the ATS International Conference to pitch their ideas and compete for cash prizes. Over the first 10 years of its existence, the BEAR Cage has not only grown as a venue for some of the most exciting and creative ideas at the ATS conference, it has also shown itself to be associated with future success, with BEAR Cage finalists emerging as leaders across the pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine enterprise. In this Perspective, we provide an overview of the ATS BEAR Cage's first 10 years and offer thoughts on the continued importance of the BEAR Cage as a place for innovation, competition, and fun to coexist.
