Accreditation in continuing veterinary education: development of an accreditation system and selection of accreditation criteria.
Review in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
With the increased supply and demand of veterinary continuing education (CE) and the growing number of CE providers, a clear need has arisen for a multinational accreditation system for veterinary CE. The objective of this document is to describe the current state of veterinary CE accreditation and the development of an accreditation system for veterinary CE, and discuss accreditation criteria and their pedagogical and practical significance. The hypothesis is that a profile of essential, pedagogically grounded, accreditation criteria can be established and utilized effectively in quality assessment. Accreditation criteria for veterinary CE can be created based on four selection principles: educational minimum requirements, coherence, efficacy, and assessability. The selected educational quality criteria are related to needs assessment, correlation of target audience and level of instruction, definition of scope, workload, and number of credits, organizer and instructor qualifications, constructive alignment, assessment of learning, learner engagement, and scientific quality of CE content. The created accreditation criteria and protocols should be regularly re-evaluated and modified in close collaboration with the relevant stakeholders. The desired outcome of CE, including behavior change and improvement of practice and ultimately human and animal health, remains challenging to predict based on course descriptions by the providers, and further research is needed.
