HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Education in Family Medicine Clerkships: A CERA Study.
Article in Family medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesLittle is known about human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) education in family medicine clerkships during medical school. Our study aimed to describe coverage of PrEP education in family medicine clerkships and explore barriers if this education was absent.
methodsData were collected through the 2023 Council of Academic Family Medicine (CAFM) Education Research Alliance (CERA) Family Medicine Clerkship Director Survey. We inquired about provision of PrEP to patients, faculty expertise with PrEP, PrEP curriculum in the clerkship, barriers to including PrEP in the clerkship curriculum, and willingness of directors to add PrEP online modules to the clerkship if available.
resultsThe response rate was 56.8% (96/169). Nine participants did not complete the PrEP questions and were excluded from analyses. Nearly two-thirds of clerkship directors perceived PrEP as an important topic in the family medicine clerkship; however, only one-third of clerkships included PrEP curriculum through clinical experiences (58.5%), didactics (17.1%), or both (14.6%). Barriers to including PrEP were lack of time in the curriculum (63.5%) and having other more important topics to cover (25.7%), but 38.9% said they would include PrEP in the clerkship if free online modules were available.
conclusionsClerkships were more likely to include PrEP curriculum in the family medicine clerkship if they had faculty with sufficient expertise or if clerkship directors believed it was important to teach PrEP in the curriculum. Offering accessible educational content can enhance educational opportunities on PrEP for medical students.
