Performance of the One Health platform in zoonotic disease surveillance in Guinea.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Zoonoses are a major global health threat, especially in low-income countries, due to their prevalence and emergence. Repeated outbreaks emphasize the need for integrated, multisectoral surveillance. While the One Health approach is essential, its implementation faces major barriers. Tools like JEE and OH-EpiCap help assess and improve these systems. This study aims to assess the functioning and effectiveness of regional One Health platforms in Guinea. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted across the eight administrative regions of Guinea to evaluate the performance of regional One Health (OH) platforms. Data were collected through structured interviews with 160 stakeholders involved in zoonotic disease surveillance, preparedness, and response. The evaluation focused on several key components: coordination; case recording and disease detection; epidemic preparedness and response; mobilization of material resources; stakeholder training; and financing mechanisms. Regional performance was assessed using the standardized evaluation tool developed by the Africa CDC. A comparative analysis was performed using radar charts to identify performance gaps between regions and to highlight disparities in the implementation of the One Health approach. Results: The overall One Health performance score in Guinea was 41%, indicating a limited level of implementation at the national scale. None of the eight assessed regions reached the 60% performance threshold. Indicator-level analysis revealed significant heterogeneity across regions. Conakry demonstrated strong performance in the domain of legislation (89%), whereas all regions exhibited weak capacities in the mobilization of material resources (9%), highlighting a major cross-cutting challenge. Regional performance scores varied considerably, with particularly low levels observed in Labé, Kindia, and Faranah (33%), underscoring major disparities in the implementation of the One Health framework. Conclusion: This study identified critical gaps in the performance of Guinea's One Health platforms, notably in resource mobilization and regional disparities. Strengthening local capacities, harmonizing practices, and improving multi-sectoral coordination are essential. Using the Africa CDC assessment tool revealed actionable insights to inform policy and investment. These findings emphasize the urgent need to reinforce One Health implementation amid persistent zoonotic threats in the country.
