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 AND

objectivesThe Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requires education on health care disparities (HCD), but research assessing formal curricula is limited. To improve knowledge and confidence in HCD, the family medicine residency program at Darnall Army Medical Center implemented a formal HCD curriculum.

methodsDuring the 2021-2022 academic year, starting July 2021, a formal HCD curriculum was implemented for family medicine residents and faculty. Ten lectures on HCDs and implicit bias were given over the course of the year. Residents and faculty were asked to incorporate HCD into their regular continuing medical education lectures. ACGME survey data as well as a pre- and postcurriculum survey were used to assess HCD knowledge and confidence. Descriptive statistics and a paired-sample t tests were calculated to compare pre- to postcurriculum changes.

resultsThe percentage of residents who reported that they had received HCD education increased from 72% on the 2021 ACGME survey to 100% in 2022 (N=18). We found a significant (P<.05) improvement in knowledge and confidence across 11 of 12 questions on the pre- and postcurriculum survey.

conclusionsA formal curriculum in a military family medicine residency setting was effective for improving self-reported HCD knowledge and confidence.
