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

Non-communicable diseases are the greatest cause of mortality and disability globally. Lifestyle medicine (LM) can facilitate effective prevention and treatment of such diseases. However, the extent and nature of LM education has not been sufficiently mapped. This scoping review aimed to assess the pedagogies, content and structure of LM education in pre-registration health profession degrees using the JBI methodology. Fifty-two articles met the inclusion criteria. Three of the six core LM pillars were not taught in the majority of programmes studied. Universities should survey their curricula to identify such gaps and appropriate opportunities to incorporate these pillars into existing modules. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40670-025-02359-y.
