Strengthening primary health care service competency: a scoping review of challenges, influencing factors, and enhancement strategies.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: This scoping review aims to evaluate the factors influencing the service capacity of primary health care (PHC) institutions and to identify strategies for their development. Methods: We conducted a scoping review based on Arksey and O'Malley's framework and systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS for studies published from January 2014 to December 2024. Eligible research addressing PHC capacity-building interventions across diverse health systems was synthesized thematically. Results: This scoping review synthesized evidence from 76 publications (2014-2024) addressing PHC competency enhancement, comprising original research articles (63.2%, Conclusion: Strengthening PHC capacity requires integrated approaches, including localized workforce training, technological adoption, optimized equity in service provision, and enhanced interdisciplinary cooperation. These approaches provide context-sensitive and equity-oriented pathways for building sustainable PHC systems-particularly in resource-constrained settings-supporting progress toward Universal Health Coverage and reducing global health disparities.
