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. 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
In the past decades, many developments on economy, demography and technology amongst others have directly or indirectly influenced population health both in a positive and negative way. Consequently, the population is aging with accompanying demand for care while the workforce in health care and wellbeing is decreasing. A so-called infarction in health care and wellbeing is pending. This calls for a shift in perspective on health as care can be prevented by healthy lifestyle and resilience and self-reliance could be increased. Positive Health (PH) introduces such an innovative shift in healthcare, prioritizing resilience, adaptability, and overall well-being over traditional disease-focused models. This Perspective article explores the possible definitions of health and the development of PH, its pros and cons, application of the concept in the Netherlands and some examples worldwide and finally and discusses the global opportunities and challenges it poses. The article highlights future pathways toward a patient-centred and sustainable healthcare system, and it is suggested that the PH perspective could be instrumental in this emphasizing intersectoral collaboration, ethical considerations, and integration into healthcare frameworks.
