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 preparedness of health professionals to address the climate crisis is increasingly important for the health and well-being of society at large. As society grapples with mounting health consequences of a changing climate, the crisis also presents an opportunity to emphasize planetary health principles in medicine and care delivery. The preparedness of physicians to address climate change and apply principles of planetary health will shape strategies to optimize individual and population health, healthcare delivery, and the health sector. The Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) accreditation standards do not currently reference climate change nor planetary health explicitly. LCME has a vested interest in improving physician workforce preparedness to meet the needs of patients and society, and consideration of climate change and planetary health in these standards is an important future step for LCME. In the meantime, the current accreditation standards offer some opportunity for students and faculty to align curricular efforts or initiatives on climate change and planetary health at their institution. The authors present practical tools highlighting multiple avenues for integrating planetary health concepts into medical education such as sustainability, resilience, and curriculum. Using existing LCME standards and data collection instruments, the authors showcase how medical students, instructors, and other leaders can incorporate planetary health concepts into the accreditation process. This approach aims to leverage accreditation to advocate for planetary health efforts and build momentum for grassroots policy change within physician training programs.
