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

Objective: Stakeholder engagement fosters creativity and adaptation in medical education. Recently, medical schools have shown increased interest in stakeholder input, yet data on its impact on undergraduate medical education remain limited. Additionally, effective methods to engage stakeholders in curriculum development are needed. This study aims to explore the impact of the Search Conference method on shaping undergraduate medical education at Karadeniz Technical University Faculty of Medicine. Materials and Methods: A qualitative document analysis was conducted. Stakeholders involved in undergraduate medical education or contributing to its development participated. They were divided into four groups and discussed six key topics over two days. Results: Stakeholders highlighted several factors expected to influence health in the 2030s, including the long-term effects of the pandemic, future pandemics, migration, biological changes, evolving dietary habits, rising healthcare costs, and technology-driven challenges such as screen addiction. They emphasized the need for future physicians to develop competencies in technology and financial literacy, innovative and design-oriented thinking, and self-regulated learning. Additionally, managing healthcare for an aging population was identified as a crucial competency. The Search Conference uniquely enabled collaborative determination of strategic goals, stakeholder roles, and institutional methods. Conclusion: This study provides the first evidence of the Search Conference method's impact on undergraduate medical education. By incorporating stakeholder insights and foresight, medical schools should realign their educational goals and curricula to better prepare future physicians for emerging healthcare challenges.
