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

objectiveAdvocacy education is an important competency in physician education. The medical education literature includes several examples of advocacy curricula in graduate medical education programs, but few in child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship programs. The authors describe a survey they conducted on the state of advocacy education in child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship programs.

methodsIn October 2024, the authors sent a survey to child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship program directors. The web-based survey asked questions regarding the purpose of the curriculum/advocacy experience, learning objectives, types of content, teaching formats, faculty, assessment of learning, and facilitators and barriers to the curriculum/learning experiences.

resultsOf the 33 child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship directors who responded to the survey, 27 (82% of respondents) indicated having advocacy experiences or curricula. The most common purposes of the advocacy experiences were to "gain awareness of child mental health systems-level issues," "learn about health policy/health laws and regulations," "gain confidence and learn advocacy skills," and "learn how to influence policy." The most common types of educational content in the advocacy experience/curriculum were "legislative advocacy skills" and "social determinants of health/health equity."

conclusionsThe majority of respondents indicated having advocacy education in their child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship programs. The survey sheds light on common purposes of this training, types of educational content, teaching formats, and common barriers and facilitators to advocacy education in child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship programs.
