CDC's Guiding Principles to Promote an Equity-Centered Approach to Public Health Communication.
Article in Preventing chronic disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers.
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
A public health practitioner's mission is to protect and promote the health of all people in all communities. Components of being successful in that mission include understanding who is at risk of negative outcomes, identifying effective actions to promote and protect health, and communicating information accordingly. Information must be scientifically rigorous, provide appropriate contextualizing information, and refer to and visually represent people through words and images in respectful ways. Public health communication objectives include that the audience accepts, understands, and acts on the information to protect and promote health. This article describes the impetus for, development of, and public health applications and implications of principles to guide communication efforts. CDC's Health Equity Guiding Principles for Inclusive Communication is a web-based resource published in August 2021 that offers - but does not mandate - guidance and recommendations for public health practice. The resource can help public health practitioners and their partners consider social inequities and diversity, think more inclusively about the people they serve, and adapt to the cultural, linguistic, environmental, and historical situation of each population or audience of focus. Users are encouraged to have conversations about the Guiding Principles as they plan and develop communication products and strategies in collaboration with communities and partners and build a shared vocabulary consistent with how communities and groups of focus see and understand themselves, because words matter. As the public health field renews its focus on shifting the paradigm toward equity, a language and narrative shift is a vital intervention.
