Developing the HEART framework: a qualitative study on faculty engagement in service-learning in Malaysia.
Article in Korean journal of medical education, 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
purposeMost research on service-learning in health professions education has concentrated on student experiences, with little emphasis on staff engagement. Understanding faculty motivations, challenges, and institutional support in service-learning remains an underexplored area. This study addresses this gap by exploring faculty experiences in an immunisation initiative for the displaced community and identifying factors influencing their participation and engagement.
methodsUsing a qualitative research approach, focus group discussions were conducted with sixteen participants involved in the initiative.
resultsFindings revealed that faculty engagement was driven by hands-on skill development, emotional connection, awareness of community needs, structured project goals, and institutional support. Balancing academic workloads and managing emotional demands hampered sustainable faculty involvement. An unexpected outcome was the depth of faculty members' personal reflection, with many reviewing their privileges and developing a stronger sense of social responsibility.
conclusionTo enhance faculty engagement, this study introduces the HEART framework, which emphasises "hands-on experience, empathy, awareness of community needs, reflection, and teamwork." While the framework provides a structured approach to supporting faculty involvement, further validation is necessary to evaluate its effectiveness across diverse educational settings. Future research should refine its components and explore long-term faculty engagement in service-learning.
