1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Resilience is widely discussed and applied across multiple disciplines, with its concept having evolved in the field of hazards and disasters over recent decades. However, there remains a lack of a resilience concept specifically applicable to infectious disease outbreaks, which can lead to misidentification of key issues in outbreak prevention and control, hindering the effective application of this concept. This study aims to provide a clear definition of resilience against infectious disease outbreaks. Building on the fundamental meaning of resilience and its application to hazards and disasters, the research has identified and developed several essential elements for resilience against infectious disease outbreaks by comparing infectious diseases with other types of natural hazards. This study then proposes that resilience against infectious disease outbreaks is the capacity to effectively prevent, detect, respond to, and control outbreaks without seriously affecting essential functions of health and social systems, which could be measured by the intensity of infectious diseases that an area can effectively manage. The concept and scope of resilience proposed in this study provide a valuable framework for improving regional capacity to better prepare for potential epidemic and pandemic threats in the future.
