1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hands-on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) training is yet to be integrated intentionally into most pharmacy curricula. The objective of this study was to examine pharmacy students' perceptions of receiving hands-on CGM training as part of their core therapeutics in diabetes. Anonymous, voluntary pre-post surveys were administered to two cohorts of 3rd-year pharmacy students from a public pharmacy school in Southern California. Pharmacy students from other class levels were excluded. The surveys, consisting of Likert scale and open-ended questions related to different aspects of CGM, were administered via a web-based learning management system. Descriptive analyses were utilized to summarize the data. In total, 84 (98%) and 79 (92%) students completed the pre- and post-activity surveys, respectively, with an average of 12.5 days of CGM wear. After receiving the CGM training, 94% of the students recommended the integration of hands-on CGM training into the PharmD curriculum. In addition, the number of students who felt confident coaching patients on CGM use more than doubled from 30% to 85%, with 73% reporting added benefits of improved personal health behaviors. In conclusion, pharmacy students' perceptions of integrating hands-on CGM education as part of their core curriculum were largely positive with added benefits of self-care.
