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

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a leading cause of cirrhosis. Insufficient clinician knowledge and comfort managing AUD impacts access to treatment. Using Kern's Framework for Curriculum Development, we aimed to (i) develop and evaluate the effect of an "AUD in cirrhosis" educational intervention on clinicians' knowledge, attitudes, comfort, preparedness, and intention (practice habits) to integrate AUD management into their practice, and (ii) assess clinicians' motivation using Self Determination Theory. Methods: Kern's approach was used for curriculum development. Pilot session feedback informed a three-part flipped-classroom series conducted by interdisciplinary clinicians in hepatology, psychiatry, primary care, and addiction psychology. Participants watched a video followed by a live session focused on (a) withdrawal, (b) screening and brief intervention, and (c) prescribing pharmacotherapy. Questionnaires assessing knowledge and practice habits were adapted from the literature. Attitudes were evaluated using the Short Alcohol and Alcohol Problems Perception Questionnaire (SAAPPQ). Self Determination Theory informed motivation questions. Results: Paired sample t-tests on pre-post questionnaires ( Conclusions: The developed sessions improved knowledge, attitudes, and practice habits of clinicians caring for this patient population. Given the rise in AUD and significant consequences in cirrhosis, this data offers promise that interactive education may improve practice habits of clinicians interfacing with this patient population.
