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

In this response to the editorial by J. J. Amon in Health and Human Rights (Amon, 2025), we reply to Dr. Amon's claims alleging methodological problems and "politicalization" associated with our peer-reviewed work, which was published in the Journal of Religion and Health (Schwartz et al., 2025) and in the Rambam Maimonides Medical Journal (Roth & Wald, 2025). Here, we offer our response, in which we provide additional details related to our informatics and statistical methodologies to refute claims raised in Amon's editorial, that our analyses were conducted in a non-standardized manner. We also explain the distinctions between the critique of Israeli governmental policies and anti-Zionism, which is a form of antisemitism, as clearly defined by the consensus-driven International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (2016). Finally, we once again highlight the presence of the anti-Zionist form of antisemitism within medical communities and associated discourse.
