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.

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
Background Diversity in a health care system has many benefits, especially in underserved communities. Providing care to a diverse population by diverse physicians may translate to better compliance and outcomes. There is limited knowledge about ethnicity and gender representation in the gastroenterology (GI) workforce in the U.S. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the trends in racial and gender diversity in GI fellowships. We also examined the impact of COVID on the female gender and racial representation. Methods Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) data were queried to identify GI trainees between 2014 and 2024. Trainees were identified based on self-reported race and gender. We defined 2014-2020 and 2021-24 as pre- and post-COVID years, respectively. We also analyzed the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) application data from 2015 to 2024 for race and gender. Pearson's Chi-squared tests were used to compare proportions of female versus non-female fellows, and
