Status and Needs Analysis of Korean Medicine Doctors' Continuing Professional Development.
Article in Journal of pharmacopuncture, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: The present study aimed to analyze the status and needs of Korean Medicine doctors' (KMDs) continuing professional development (CPD) and establish future improvement directions. Methods: A cross-sectional survey targeting all KMDs was conducted between October 23 to November 5, 2024, obtaining 624 responses. The questionnaire was developed to assess satisfaction with continuing education and residency training, perceived efficacy on competency development, and improvement needs. Results: While current CPD programs effectively enhanced optimal patient care competencies (highest-rated domain), approximately 40% of respondents indicated minimal improvement in social accountability and clinical management competencies. The most requested improvements were the expansion of practical training opportunities (63.0%) and curriculum improvement (37.0%). For residency training, respondents prioritized developing competency-centered curricula (65.0%) and standardized educational programs across training hospitals (63.3%). Conclusion: Findings indicate that KMDs desire increased practical training opportunities, competency-based standardized curricula, and expanded scope of practice through institutional support. Establishing competency frameworks across clinical departments and strengthening competencies required in modern healthcare environments are essential for advancing Korean Medicine practice.
