Where Does Wastewater-Based Epidemiology Fall in Medical Student Education?
Article in Journal of medical education and curricular development. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Doctors are well-trained in the collection, analysis, and interpretation of individual stool or urine sample data; however, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) combines the excretion of many community members into an anonymous health sample tied to a geographic location. We advocate for the inclusion of WBE in medical education. WBE offers physicians an opportunity to better care for patients with diseases seen at health clinics and doctors' offices, customize and inform treatment, and accept positive results as true positives, backed by the contextual information provided by wastewater findings. It is also a tool to combat biased or misinformed risk perceptions. Medical education should include how to evaluate wastewater information presented, detect inconsistencies, and determine applicability; just as medical students are taught to do with data from other sources.
