Composition of the Public Health Workforce: Distribution, Training, and Tenure.
Article in Journal of public health management and practice : JPHMP. 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
objectiveDescribe the public health and job experience of the local public health workforce at the agency level and based on the characteristics of the jurisdictions they serve.
designCross-sectional design of US public health workforce at the agency level using 2019 National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) Profile and 2021 Public Health Workforce Interests and Needs Survey (PH WINS) data.
settingLocal health departments across the United States.
participantsThe sample comprised 248 Local Health Departments (LHDs).
main outcome measuresThe percent of the workforce with formal training in public health, percent of the workforce that identifies as women, percent of the workforce with 6 or more years of experience in public health practice, and percent of the workforce with 6 or more years of experience in their current agency.
resultsRural-serving LHDs had a greater staffing proportion of women, less formal public health training, and a smaller proportion of staff with 6 or more years of public health practice experience. Gender identity and formal public health training of the top executive of the LHD are correlated with staffing proportions on these measures.
conclusionsThe local public health workforce composition varies by geography, agency characteristics, and characteristics of the jurisdiction served. Rurality and characteristics of the top executive of the LHD are correlated with the composition of the public health workforce.
