Formalizing digital health competencies for the health workforce in Ukraine.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Effective digital health transformation requires a workforce with adequate digital competencies, yet fewer than half of WHO European Region countries have policies addressing this gap. In Ukraine, a 2021 assessment found that 56% of healthcare professionals demonstrated only basic or beginner levels of digital literacy, while no standardized competency requirements existed across qualifications or education. The national Digital Competence Framework for Healthcare Professionals was developed through coordination among health, education, and digital authorities. The Framework defines 25 components across five domains-general digital literacy, health data management, digital communication, digital health tools, and digital transformation leadership-with descriptors at four proficiency levels, informing qualification standards, curricula, and competence assessment. This Ukrainian experience offers practical insights for countries seeking to formalize digital competencies for the health workforce.
