Inpatient Pediatric Training of Family Medicine Residents: A Pediatric Perspective.
Article in Family medicine, 2025. 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesFamily physicians contribute significantly to the pediatric workforce, but little is known about their pediatric training during residency, specifically in the inpatient setting. Our objective was to gather data on the inpatient pediatric training of family medicine residents from the perspective of pediatric faculty.
methodsWe created a survey about inpatient pediatric training of family medicine residents, including pediatric rotation characteristics, ward team structure, educational resources, and faculty involvement. The Association of Pediatric Program Directors (APPD) accepted the survey for distribution to pediatric residency associate program directors. Demographic data about respondents were provided by APPD. Data were collected between January and February 2024. We performed descriptive analysis of survey responses.
resultsWe received 74 responses from 190 institutions, for a response rate of 39%. Of the respondents, 81% provided training to family medicine residents. We found wide variability in the structure of this training. Only 7% of sites reported having curricula specific to training family medicine residents in inpatient pediatric care. Inpatient pediatricians (76%) are often tasked with creating rotation structure and curricula for training family medicine residents.
conclusionsIn the view provided by our limited survey population, we found variability in the training structure and content of pediatric inpatient experiences; few family medicine-specific curricular tools are being used for this training, with little to no family medicine faculty involvement in this training. An opportunity may be available for collaboration between pediatric and family medicine faculty to establish a foundation for future curricula.
