Canada First Nations Strengths in Community-Based Primary Healthcare.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionFirst Nation (FN) peoples and communities in Canada are still grappling with the effects of colonization. Health and social inequities result in higher disease burden and significant disparities in healthcare access and responsiveness. For resilience, survival, and self-determination, FN are looking inwards for strengths. This paper reports on the cultural, community, and family strengths that have supported FN communities in developing community-based primary healthcare (CBPHC) strategies to support health and wellbeing.
methodsThe study was a partnership between university-based researchers; The First Nations Health and Social Secretariat of Manitoba; and eight First Nation communities in Manitoba. Community-based participatory research methods were used to engage the participating communities. One hundred and eighty-three in-depth, semi-structured key informant interviews were completed between 2014 and 2016 with key members of the First Nation communities, i.e., community-based health providers and users of primary healthcare services, representing all age and genders. Data-collection and analysis were conducted following iterative grounded theory analysis.
resultsCommunity-based healthcare models based on local strengths support easier access and shorter wait times for care and compassionate care delivery. Resources such as homecare and medical transportation are helpful. Community cooperation, youth power, responsive leadership, and economic development as well as a strong cultural and spiritual base are key strengths supporting health and social wellbeing.
conclusionsLocally led, self-determined care adds strength in FN communities, and is poised to create long-lasting primary healthcare transformation.
