Health systems' adaptations to climate change: an umbrella review of global evidence protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. 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
introductionHealth systems' (HS) adaptations to climate change (CC) cover two major, and interrelated dimensions: (1) Environmental sustainability-actions aimed at limiting the negative impact of HS on the environment (eg, by reducing greenhouse gas emissions) and (2) Climate resilience-adaptations focused on improving HS' ability to cope with the impact of CC (eg, by improving HS preparedness to climate-induced natural disasters). Within both dimensions, a diversity of actions, at different HS levels, can take place. The general objective is to provide health policy makers with a comprehensive evidence-based set of recommendations on the scope and effectiveness of HS adaptations to CC. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: An umbrella review will be conducted. Systematic reviews will be included if: (1) They focus on HS adaptations to CC (including both environmental sustainability and climate resilience strategies/actions), (2) Were published since 2015 and (3) Report a quality appraisal of included studies. Five databases were searched: (1) MEDLINE via PubMed, (2) Scopus, (3) Web of science core collection, (4) ProQuest Central and (5) The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Two reviewers will independently assess studies' eligibility, conduct quality appraisal and perform data extraction. Data will be synthesised using both quantitative and qualitative methods. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses will guide the reporting of results. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval is not required, as this study involves the collection and analysis of secondary data only. The results will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal and disseminated via dedicated research channels and social media platforms. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD420251052647.
