Otolaryngology Surgeon-Scientists: The Road Less Traveled.
Article in OTO open. 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
Objective: Surgeon-Scientists in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS) are critical to advancing clinical care through scientific innovation. However, extended training duration and challenges in research funding acquisition continue to hinder career advancement. Study Design: Cross-sectional cohort study. Setting: Analysis of publicly available NIH RePORTER data and national survey of NIH-funded OHNS faculty across US academic medical institutions. Survey data was collected between October and December 2024. Methods: We identified NIH-funded OHNS faculty as of September 2024 using the NIH RePORTER database. We examined time to initial R01-equivalent funding and grant diversity by degree types (MD, PhD, or dual-degree). A survey was administered to the OHNS faculty to evaluate their training experiences, research productivity, and funding mechanisms. Results: PhD faculty comprised the largest proportion of NIH-funded OHNS investigators (52%) and had greater grant diversity than MD and dual-degree counterparts ( Conclusion: While OHNS PhD faculty attain early and diverse funding, structured training programs and engagement in basic science research significantly enhance MD-degree faculty funding success. This study highlights institutional and training-level strategies that reduce the time to research independence and strengthen the OHNS surgeon-scientist pipeline.
