Accelerating Community Engagement: Measuring Results.
Article in International journal of 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
Objectives: Community engagement (CE) is vital for Primary Health Care (PHC) and for achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. However, large public health programs often prioritize measuring outcomes and impact over assessing CE itself. This paper proposes a comprehensive, community-centered Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) framework with relevant indicators to strengthen CE assessment. Methods: We reviewed international M&E frameworks and their applications from both public health and community perspectives. Our analysis drew on guidelines from international organizations and 10 years of project data from seven countries. Results: Findings underscore the need to bridge program-level and community-level indicators while aligning recent M&E guidance with CE frameworks from international agencies. Accordingly, we present a revised, comprehensive, community-centered M&E framework, along with supporting actions for its implementation-such as contextual adaptation, research, digital innovation, resource mobilization, and recommended policy measures. Conclusion: As the 2030 targets approach, strengthening normative and policy guidance on CE is essential to accelerate progress toward the SDGs. This publication reinforces CE's central role in PHC, Universal Health Coverage, and sustainable development strategies.
