Community health in a climate disaster: a One Health analysis of workforce exposure in the Eaton wildfire.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2026. 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
Introduction: Climate driven disasters underscore the interdependence of human health and environmental conditions within the One Health framework. This community case study examines the experiences of frontline healthcare workers deployed during the 2025 Eaton Wildfire in Southern California. Methods: Using a quantitative survey across volunteer staff members serving as frontline healthcare workers ( Results: Most respondents felt motivated to help the community during a crisis (93%) and make a difference in the lives of others (81%), yet more than half reported emotional impact as a significant challenge (53%); deeper qualitative inquiry revealed potential for retriggering due to prior trauma in some workers, including personal experience as a refugee, or history of displacement due to violence. Many identified role clarity concerns (43%), mitigated by scope of practice associated with clinical licensure. While most felt supported (85%), they emphasized the need for peer debriefing and reflection spaces, self-care resources, mental health support, and training for future emergencies. Discussion: This paper highlights a critical and emerging challenge in climate disaster response: healthcare workers can themselves be disaster survivors, which deeply affects their capacity to respond effectively. Aligning with the One Health principles of holism, collective wellbeing, and reciprocity, the Burnout Dyad is applied to this dual status experience. Conclusion: Recognizing and supporting these dual status frontline healthcare workers, both responders and survivors, is essential for sustaining resilient health systems in the face of increasing climate crises.
