Graduates of Caribbean Training Program Contribute to Strengthening Bioethics Systems, but More Support is Needed.
Review in Journal of empirical research on human research ethics : JERHRE, 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
We conducted a retrospective pre-post study to determine the changes in research ethics-related practices that occurred after participation in a training program in the Caribbean. Using online questionnaires, we collected data on bioethics activities of alumni before and following training. Participants also indicated how else they thought the program could produce greater benefits. Of 40 English-speaking alumni, 20 (50%) completed questionnaires. There was greater participation in outreach education activities after the program (55%) compared with before (25%). No significant change was observed in other activities; however, at least half of the graduates served on research ethics committees, engaged in advocacy, or carried out bioethics-related duties in their jobs. Time constraints and insufficient opportunities were cited as reasons for not participating in more activities. Alumni also felt that they would have benefited from practical interventions such as internships. Graduates could contribute more to strengthening bioethics systems in the Caribbean with greater support from key stakeholders.
