A Scoping Review of Interventions to Promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the United States Healthcare Workforce.
Review in Journal of medical education and curricular development. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Diversifying the healthcare workforce is critical to achieving a healthier, more equitable society. Objectives: The objective of this literature review was to examine and synthesize the literature on interventions to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in people who are currently enrolled in the workforce or in a terminal degree/training program and who are located in the following institution types: medical centers; healthcare organizations; and schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and public health. Methods: A literature search was performed on November 2, 2023 in Ovid MEDLINE Results: The authors identified 55 articles for inclusion, 4 of which aggregated and analyzed data from many interventions. The remainder detailed 52 interventions across 25 states and Puerto Rico. Most articles did not include a comparison group (38, 69%). The types of interventions identified were: institutional change (14, 27%), mentorship (13, 25%), development programs (13, 25%), pathway programs (5, 10%), financial support (2, 4%), and workshops (2, 4%). Three (6%) interventions could not be categorized. Most studies detailed interventions in medicine (28, 54%) and nursing (11, 21%), focused on racial and ethnic (42, 81%) and/or sex (12, 23%) diversity, and targeted students (33, 64%) and/or faculty/staff (28, 54%). Conclusion: Many different types of interventions have been trialed to promote workforce DEI in the United States healthcare workforce. These efforts must continue to achieve a diverse and equitable healthcare workforce.
