Role of AI-supported case-based learning in medical education: a scoping review protocol

Por: Abidi · S. H. · Almazan · J. · Zehra · F. · Fabiyi · O. · Tariq · M.
Introduction

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools are rapidly transforming case-based learning (CBL) within medical education. Despite growing interest, the literature is heterogeneous, fragmented and inconsistent in terminology and methodology. This scoping review aims to systematically map and synthesise evidence on the integration of generative AI in CBL, identifying key themes, educational outcomes, challenges and research gaps to guide future investigations, curricular innovation and policy development.

Method and analysis

A comprehensive search strategy, developed with a health sciences librarian, will be implemented across multidisciplinary databases, including PubMed/MEDLINE, ERIC, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE and CINAHL, covering publications from 2019 to 2025. Two independent reviewers will conduct title/abstract and full-text screening using predefined eligibility criteria. Data extraction will use standardised charting forms capturing study characteristics, AI applications, educational contexts, outcomes and user perceptions. Data synthesis will involve descriptive statistics and inductive thematic analysis to create an evidence map of generative AI-supported CBL in medical education.

Ethics and dissemination

No ethics approval is required, as the review synthesises published literature. Findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals, conferences and stakeholder networks to inform educators, researchers and policymakers.

Objective

This study aims to assess parents’ knowledge and attitude towards the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination of their daughters and the associated factors in Debre Tabor town, northwest Ethiopia.

Design

A community-based cross-sectional study.

Setting

Debre Tabor town, Northwest Ethiopia.

Participants

A total of 702 participants were included in the study, with a response rate of 98.2%. Three out of the six kebeles in the town were randomly selected, and participants within the selected kebeles were recruited through a cluster sampling technique. An interviewer-administered structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 15 December 2021 to 15 February 2022.

Primary and secondary outcome measures

Parents’ level of knowledge and attitude towards the HPV vaccination of their daughters, and the associated factors.

Results

In the study, parents’ knowledge and attitude towards HPV vaccination were found to be 46.4% (95% CI 42.7% to 50.1%) and 61.5% (95% CI 58.0% to 65.2%), respectively. Parents with a higher level of education (adjusted OR (AOR)=2.27; 95% CI 1.39 to 3.69), media exposure (AOR=3.36; 95% CI 1.21 to 9.33) and a good attitude towards the HPV vaccine (AOR=8.81; 95% CI 5.78 to 13.44) were significantly associated factors that affect parents’ level of knowledge. Positive subjective norms (AOR=1.53; 95% CI 1.01 to 2.31) and perceived behavioural control towards the HPV vaccine (AOR=3.48; 95% CI 2.37 to 5.10) had statistically significant associations with parents’ attitude.

Conclusions

In this study, more than half of parents had poor knowledge of the HPV and its vaccination, while the majority of the participants showed a favourable attitude to the vaccine. Educational attainment, media exposure and a positive attitude were significantly associated with parental knowledge, and parents’ attitude was positively influenced by subjective norms and perceived behavioural control. This suggests a need to increase the parents’ level of awareness through educational interventions, particularly via media and community engagement. To improve the acceptance and uptake of the HPV vaccination, it is important to address negative attitudes and common misconceptions among parents on the safety, efficacy and necessity of the vaccine for their daughters.
