[Determination of the post-pandemic self-perceived health level in the adult population of Eastern Andalusia: A cross-sectional study].
Observational study in Revista espanola de salud publica, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe appearance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus led to the adoption of extreme health measures aimed at containing or minimizing the effects of the pandemic it produced. These measures had a significant impact on people's physical and mental health, causing a drastic decrease in the health-related quality of life by losing one of its fundamental pillars, social health. With this study, we aimed to assess the self-perceived health status after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic.
methodsA cross-sectional and observational study design was developed. Participants included the entire adult population over eighteen years of age residing in the provinces of Granada, Almería and/or Jaén as of January 1, 2023 until February 20, 2023. Each participant was administered the validated 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) to measure their self-perceived level of health. A descriptive analysis of all the variables included in the study was conducted using the statistical software SPSS v.22.
resultsThe mean score obtained in the SF-36 questionnaire was 132.39±19.55 basis points; corresponding to a self-perceived level of good health. It had been observed that the confinement and other measures adopted during the pandemic led to a decrease in the self-perceived level of health, taking more than three years to return to pre-pandemic health levels.
conclusionsThe study of the population's self-perceived level of health aims to improve the health system and, in turn, to increase the mental, social and physical well-being of the population, avoiding the after-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the coming years.
