Publishing Trends in the Field of School-Based Health From 2014 to 2024: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in Cureus, 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
School-based health interventions have been shown to significantly improve pediatric health outcomes. This study aims to analyze trends in research published on school-based health between 2014 and 2024. A comprehensive literature search was performed on PubMed. Data points abstracted from each article included publication details, study details, and research study topics. A total of 953 publications were analyzed. A peak in annual publications was apparent in 2018-2019, followed by a decline. Nine- to 13-year-olds were the most studied population (50.9%). The most commonly assigned research topics were physical activity and nutrition (36%), health promotion (25%), mental health (19%), obesity (15%), and substance use (12%). Research in the field of school-based health has evolved, but the overall annual number of publications is declining. Still, published data reveals that most school-based health studies have positive outcomes on the health of our pediatric population. These results underscore the need for continued research, particularly in underrepresented areas such as school-based health centers, telemedicine, minority youth, students with disabilities, and interventions targeting reproductive health, violence prevention, and socioeconomic disparities.
