Assessment of the Family Medicine Residency Training Environment in Guangdong, China, Based on the PHEEM: A Cross-Sectional Study.
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
objectivesThe clinical learning environment exerts a profound influence on trainees' educational outcomes and professional development. Despite its recognized importance, no validated instrument currently exists to systematically assess this environment within family medicine residency programs in the Chinese context. This study aimed to evaluate the educational environment of family medicine residents in Guangdong Province, China, and to examine the validity of the Chinese version of the Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measure (PHEEM) for this population.
methodsIn this multicenter cross-sectional study, 240 residents from six hospitals were surveyed using the 40-item Chinese version of the PHEEM (scored on a 5-point Likert scale). Principal component analysis with Varimax rotation was used to identify factors (eigenvalue >1).
resultsThree domains were identified-role autonomy, teaching, and social support-explaining 63.07% of total variance. Cronbach's α was 0.966 overall; subscale α values were 0.858, 0.969, and 0.890, respectively.
conclusionsThe PHEEM shows strong internal consistency and structural validity for assessing the family medicine residency learning environment in China. Further research is recommended to confirm its broader applicability.
