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

backgroundCommunity-based medical education (CBME) is an essential component of medical education, where primary healthcare physicians (PCPs) play a crucial role. This study explores PCPs' awareness and engagement in CBME and investigates the factors influencing their participation.

methodsThis mixed study was conducted in two phases. In the first phase, a qualitative study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with PCPs as well as thematic analysis related to their awareness and engagement in CBME. In the second phase, a quantitative survey was conducted on 72 PCPs' pre- and post-training programs.

resultsPrimary healthcare physicians had a positive attitude toward community-based medical education. The participants had an acceptable level of awareness and engagement, which increased substantially by (

conclusionThe study findings highlighted the importance of increased awareness and the factors that enhance PCPs' engagement in CBME. This positive perspective of the PCPs will help build effective partnerships and facilitate the extension of the curriculum to apply CBME.
