Nutrition education for healthcare professionals in Ireland: insights from curriculum, accreditation and registration standards.
Article in Public health nutrition, 2026. 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
objectiveNutrition plays a valuable role in health promotion and disease prevention. Nutrition education for healthcare professionals (HCPs) has been widely explored globally. However, it has not been investigated extensively within Ireland. This research aimed to assess references to nutrition within education programmes, accreditation curricula standards and registration requirements of professional bodies for primary care and community HCPs in Ireland.
designA cross-sectional content analysis was conducted. Data collection was carried out in October 2024.
settingIreland.
participantsA sample of primary care and community HCPs was included (
resultsOut of fifty-two education programmes, 26·9 % (
conclusionsThis research demonstrates a sparsity of nutrition within key education standards for primary care and community HCPs in Ireland. Key recommendations include a call to action for formal and consistent embedding of nutrition within education for medical professionals in Ireland, in line with international best practice.
