1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: To establish the entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for stomatological residents. Methods: Research experts were recruited from professors of stomatology and medical education. The EPAs index was designed based on a scoping review and clinical practice on the basis of the requirements of resident training program. The Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of expert consultations among 30 experts over the period from Jan 2023 to Sep 2023 to confirm the EPAs index for stomatological residents. Results: Two rounds of consulting experts positive coefficient were 100% and the authority coefficient Kendall 0.319 and 0.339, respectively ( Conclusion: The index of EPAs were preliminary constructed for stomatological residents; the details are preliminary consensus-based and require further validation to inform future competency-based assessment of stomatological residents.
