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
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic placed significant strain on physicians. Gender inequities in medicine preceded the pandemic. This study aimed to assess the association of COVID-19 lockdown on physicians' careers, work-life balance, resilience, and burnout from a gender perspective, in Lebanon. Materials and methods: A web-based survey was sent to all Lebanese Syndicate of Physicians members. Data was collected between August and September 2022. The survey was designed comprising five domains to assess personal characteristics, career impact, work-family intersection, resilience, and burnout. Results: A total of 165 physicians were included in the analysis. A greater percentage of women were married with children and in a non-surgical specialty. During COVID-19 lockdown, more women occupied part-time positions compared to pre-COVID-19 (29.2%vs.18.0%, Conclusions: Our study highlights the disproportionate association between COVID-19 lockdown and experiences of women physicians. Policies and initiatives to retain women physicians during crises are of paramount importance as are interventions targeting resilience in single physicians and overall burnout.
