Authorship	Research Topic	Time Frame	Methodology	Main Findings
Choksomngam, Y. et al. [48]	To find the association between each dimension of family functioning and controlled Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms	2017–2018	Cross-sectional study	Family functioning was associated with controlled ADHD symptoms. In children with ADHD with poor symptom control, the assessment of family functioning could be helpful for children and caregivers.
Herbaux, C. et al. [49]	To improve the training of medical students in the choice of diagnostic testing faced with a clinical case of general practice	2017	Prospective study	Academic training about the prescription of diagnostic testing in family medicine is essential to improve students’ level of conscientiousness and develop a reflective approach regarding prescriptive appropriateness.
Jaber, D. et al. [50]	To compare the national prevalence of depression and anxiety signs/symptoms and well as identify associated socio-demographic factors among fertile Jordanian and Palestinian couples	2018–2019	Cross-sectional study	Jordanian and Palestinian couples have a high burden of anxiety and depression symptoms. Health professionals and educators should focus on creating preventive procedures using evidence-based guidelines to support the mental health of Jordanian and Palestinian couples.
Sirirak, T. et al. [40]	To investigate the longitudinal association between depression and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels among elderly type 2 diabetic patients	2020–2021	Longitudinal study	Depression is an important factor in glycaemic control in type 2 diabetic older patients; thus, it is important to routinely screen mental health evaluation in type 2 diabetic older patients in every OPD visit, and a treatment plan or preventive program should be provided as soon as possible.
Park, C. et al. [51]	To investigate the association of Low Muscle Mass (LMM) and obesity on hearing loss in the general population	2012–2017	Cross-sectional study	There is a possible link between sarcopenic obesity and the development of hearing loss; therefore, further research is needed in order to demonstrate that targeted treatments for sarcopenic obesity can improve hearing function.
ALruwaili, B. et al. [52]	To assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices of evidence-based medicine (EBM) among primary care physicians in the provinces of northern Saudi Arabia	2022	Cross-sectional survey	Given the low knowledge and use of EBM applied to family medicine, appropriate training programs for primary care physicians are needed to improve knowledge of EBM and its importance in clinical practice.
Tokovska, M. et al. [53]	To investigate the burden of caregivers of people with dementia in Slovakia through a stress measurement tool (Relatives’ Stress Scale—RSS)	2019–2020	Online survey	Expanding the network of social support groups, operating a counselling hotline/chat and introducing national educational programs for close relatives of dementia patients are necessary interventions in order to improve caregivers’ quality of life and quality of care.
Luvira, V. et al. [54]	To determine associations between family background and mental health problems in a cohort of students who attended the mental health counselling clinic for college students	2018	Cross-sectional descriptive study	Family contexts, such as parental migration, unfamiliarity with parents, financial issues, family conflicts, communication failures in the family, the infidelity of parents and domestic violence, were associated with mental health problems in university students.
Schrimpf, A. et al. [55]	To examine the impact of the pandemic, especially the double burden of providing healthcare to patients with COVID-19/long COVID and routine care, on GPs’ work routines	2021–2022	Online survey	The COVID-19 pandemic continues to worsen the working conditions of primary care physicians and affect essential health services; therefore, urgent interventions need to be made by institutions in order to support primary healthcare in the management of patients in times of high demand.
Frèche, B. et al. [56]	To synthesise knowledge about the diagnostic and therapeutic management of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in general practice	1982–2018	Narrative review	General Practitioners represent the first line of care in the management of Hp infection; thus, simplifying the recommendations available to GPs in their daily practice would optimise the identification of patients at risk and the management of Hp infection.
Rivera Rivera, L. et al. [57]	To measure the prevalence of cases of domestic violence against women and some associated factors during the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico	2020	Online survey	From a prevention perspective, sociocultural, psychological, and ecological interventions are necessary. Further, such studies are needed to measure the phenomenon’s evolution after the pandemic and determine the impact of measures put in place to prevent it.
Kosmalski, M. et al. [58]	To summarise the latest evidence about weight-reducing drugs and the treatment of obesity, taking into account their effectiveness and the individualisation of use	2022	Review	Due to the increasing number of drugs that reduce body weight, therapeutic choice is increasingly difficult. Taking into account the increased risk for diabetic patients, performing diagnostic tests before taking these drugs is essential.
Giannetta, N. et al. [59]	To translate and validate a questionnaire regarding the use of KAB theory in the study of medication administration errors in ICUs from English into Persian	2019	Cross-sectional pilot study	The KAB medication administration errors in the ICU questionnaire mean it is a reliable and valid instrument to be used within Persian healthcare settings.
Hamdan, N. et al. [60]	To investigate the knowledge and attitudes of primary care physicians regarding palliative care in Malaysia	2020	Cross-sectional study	Physicians’ basic knowledge of palliative care knowledge in Malaysia is still inadequate. More concerted efforts need to be applied to ensure that palliative care training is integrated into educational programs.

Alotaibi, H. et al. [39]	To assess how dermatological diseases are identified, managed and referred to in primary healthcare centres (PHCs)	2021–2022	Mixed methods study	Targeted training, the provision of seminars, and improvements in medical school curricula are critical with regard to quality of care performance in the clinical management of commonly treated dermatologic conditions by primary care physicians.
Wiedermann, C.J. [62]	To describe the problem of the shortage of primary care physicians by focusing on modernising medical curricula, creating new medical schools and implementing policy innovations	2023	Descriptive study	The growing medical shortage crisis in primary care is a significant threat to the stability and effectiveness of healthcare systems. Addressing this problem requires a multi-pronged approach encompassing various aspects, including medical education and collaboration between institutions.
Wang, Y.-Y. et al. [63]	To examine the relationship between family health and college students’ health literacy and the mediating role that psychological resilience plays in this relationship	2022	Survey	Family health may be a potential key factor in improving college students’ health literacy, whereas psychological resilience functions as a mediating mechanism.
