QualityRights in medical education to reduce coercion in mental health in Colombia: instrument validation and quasi-experimental study.
Article in BJPsych open, 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
backgroundThe QualityRights initiative has shown benefits in decreasing coercive practices and enhancing the recognition of human rights in healthcare.
aimsTo translate the World Health Organization's (WHO) QualityRights Practices Questionnaire into Spanish and assess the relationships between coercive practices in healthcare settings, perceptions of mental disorders, and attitudes and commitment to human rights among primary healthcare professionals from multiple disciplines. Also, we sought to compare these variables between trained and untrained professionals, and evaluate longitudinal outcomes of integrating QualityRights training into undergraduate medical education.
methodA quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group was conducted. Instruments included the Community Attitudes Toward the Mentally III, Human Rights Exposure in Social Work and Human Rights Engagement in Social Work scales, and the WHO QualityRights Practices Questionnaire. A total of 260 professionals from 12 Colombian regions participated in the study. Multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to examine the effects of the QualityRights initiative on various dimensions related to human rights.
resultsTranslation and validation of the WHO QualityRights Practices Questionnaire yielded excellent psychometric properties (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value: 0.945; Cronbach's
conclusionsIn Colombia, incorporating the QualityRights initiative into medical education appears to be a promising strategy for reducing stigma, enhancing knowledge and commitment to human rights, and minimising coercive practices in primary mental healthcare.
