Educational needs assessment for health advocate role in family medicine residency training in Turkey: A Delphi study.
Article in The European journal of general practice, 2024. 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
backgroundHealth advocacy (HA) involves purposeful actions to inform, mobilise, and organise activities to address social determinants of health affecting individuals or communities. It is a fundamental component of medical practice, deemed mandatory by professional and educational bodies. Therefore, including health advocacy training in pre- and post-graduate medical education is crucial.
objectivesIn this study, we aimed to determine the need for HA training for family physicians (FPs) based on expert opinions.
methodsWe conducted a modified Delphi study with 105 academic experts and active FPs to explore HA training needs. Using a three-round technique, experts first answered five open-ended questions on HA competencies, teaching and assessment methods, learning environments, and integration in residency training. In the second round, statements from the responses were rated on a 5-point Likert scale, in the third round, statements below the 85% consensus level were revised and re-evaluated.
resultsThe panel consisted of 41 experts (33 academicians, 8 practitioners) who accepted the invitation and completed the study. At the end of the three rounds, consensus was reached on 38 statements for HA competencies, 15 for teaching methods, 8 for assessment methods, and 20 for integration for HA training.
conclusionCompetencies for the HA role are very broad in perspective and show commonalities with the FPs' 'professional', 'expert' and 'leader' roles. Longitudinally integration of the HA training into the national 'Family Medicine Residency Training Core Curriculum' through participatory processes and training of FM trainers in HA is strongly recommended.
