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

backgroundExperiential education is a core element in developing the ability of pharmacy students to apply theory to practice, solve problems, and acquire standard pharmacist competencies. To achieve this goal, preceptors play a crucial role as teachers, mentors, and evaluators. The study objective was to identify and describe the core competencies and skills considered essential to the success of clinical preceptor pharmacists in the training of future care providers, in a steadily changing environment.

methodsA task force was formed within the Scientific Committee of the Lebanese Order of Pharmacists to map, sort, select, and adapt international competencies to the current Lebanese context.

resultsSeven roles were identified: Role model/Practitioner/Mentor, Supervisor/Facilitator/Coach/Teacher, Manager, Collaborator/Communicator, Leader, Clinical expert, and Researcher. Related competencies were also defined.

conclusionall aforementioned competencies are expected to improve the acquisition of learning by pharmacy trainees in Lebanon. This framework can be used by pharmacy program directors and preceptors for developmental purposes through self- or peer-evaluation processes, identifying gaps, and helping to fill the needs for a better workforce in academic and experiential pharmacy education.
