The roads not yet taken: 50 years after Lalonde, where does Public Health go from here?
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique, 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
Fifty years after the release of the seminal Lalonde Report, public health in Canada is faced with some questions regarding the next 50 years and beyond. To what degree is public health ready to help expose or define Canadian societal values? To what degree is public health ready to engage with the complex nature of structural determinants and the power dynamics that they necessarily invoke? Can public health evolve its discourse regarding social determinants of health and, in doing so, is it ready to perhaps join in with work already in progress, like that related to wellbeing? This brief commentary explores these issues.
