#WorldEBHCDay in 2025 focuses on the many different ways knowledge can, and should, be shared. Short videos are just one of the many ways knowledge can be made more accessible. This video summarises findings from a systematic review: www.youtube.com/watch?v=g27F...

Screenshot of JBI's guide for authors: 
CREATING A VIDEO ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION
This guide is for published authors who would like to disseminate their research to a wider audience using digital media.

WHAT IS A VIDEO ABSTRACT?
A video abstract is like a movie trailer; it introduces a wide audience to a research paper. As with a movie trailer, a video abstract should be short, engaging and easy to understand while summarising key points of the research. A video abstract aims to pique interest and direct viewers to the published article.

Video abstracts are associated with an INCREASE in research reports citations, views and social media attention.

By applying targeted evidence implementation, this project transformed clinical communication into a key driver of vaccination success. More children are now protected from deadly illnesses like dipheria, tetanus, and hepatitis B. Caregivers feel informed and supported, while health workers deliver both care and understanding. At its core, it's a story of trust rebuilt and communities strengthened through better communication.

Infographic titled β€œKnowledge User Engagement Using JBI Guidance for Scoping Reviews.” 

Knowledge users are those invested in research, who may benefit from or be impacted by it (e.g., academics, patients, providers, policymakers, funders, decision-makers, trainees).

Before the scoping review (strategy development):

Planning for engagement: Reflect on why, identify which users, consider recruitment methods.

Developing relationships: Build early for engagement and expectation setting; use Terms of Reference for transparency.

Pre-planning: Ask users what research areas matter, via discussions, surveys, or priority-setting workshops.

Protocol development:
Knowledge users can:

Develop, refine, or approve research questions.

Define eligibility criteria.

Help design the search strategy, suggest terms or key studies.

Provide feedback on data extraction forms.

Review the protocol manuscript.

During the scoping review:
Knowledge users can:

Help screen, select, and extract articles (researchers should include and train them if interested).

Review results to check if they make sense.

Suggest improvements to presentation.

Develop or review implications to ensure findings are meaningful to the community.

After the scoping review:

Knowledge users can co-develop evidence summaries or communication outputs (e.g., posts for social media).

Share findings in their communities.

Work with researchers to advocate for uptake of findings by political or community organisations.

Screenshot taken from the editorial: ' When different methodologies yield different results: reflections on conducting an integrated mixed methods review':

"... we extracted and included information about the level of endorsement of items in our synthesized findings. We also organized our review findings in a way that prioritized the qualitative findings, and then reported instances where findings extracted from survey design studies were consistent with, or missed aspects of, what women reported qualitatively.

"Takeaways
Conducting an integrated mixed methods review allowed for the integration of a range of study methodologies that provided a full and nuanced understanding of the barriers and facilitators pregnant women face in accessing support services. However, it also uncovered issues with the extent to which the interventions hypothesized to provide benefit (in the case of the small monetary voucher studies) and the measures used (in the case of survey design studies) reflected the lived realities of the those being researched. The risk in this context is that research findings are obscured in a way that suggests a primacy of instrumental issues, such as monetary incentives, cost, and transport, over issues such as stigma, judgment, and racism from clinicians, and fear of child removal. This highlights the benefits of co-design in research and the inclusion of free-form responses in survey design studies."

Synthesised findings.
1. Facility-based delivery with conditional cash transfers (CCTs) was 622 per 1000 and without CCTs was 518 per 1000 (moderate-certainty evidence).
2. Early infant diagnosis with a dried blood spot sample at 6 weeks' postpartum in the CCT group was 559 per 1000 and without CCT was 401 per 1000 (low-certainty evidence).
