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

The accelerating impacts of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss demand an educational paradigm that integrates ecological and human health systems. The University of New England has implemented a transdisciplinary Planetary Health framework to connect public health, environmental sciences, and health professions. Between 2020 and 2025, UNE's Planetary Health Council and the Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice co-hosted a series of online and in-person events addressing interconnected issues such as pandemic resilience, environmental injustice, chemical pollution, and biodiversity loss, among others. Post-event surveys from 502 active participants in five events demonstrated strong engagement and positive perceptions of the event format. Respondents frequently cited appreciation for diverse disciplinary perspectives, relevance to professional practice, and delivery format. Suggestions for improvement focused on expanding discussion time and providing deeper topic exploration. Participation data further indicated that virtual and hybrid delivery formats enhanced accessibility and broadened engagement across disciplines. This descriptive retrospective study offers practical insights for educators designing planetary health and interprofessional programming. By documenting participant experience and engagement patterns, this article contributes to the emerging practice-based literature on scalable, transdisciplinary approaches to planetary health education and suggests directions for future research.
