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

During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare professionals struggled to get accurate, up-to-date information to community members, especially to minoritized, marginalized, and underserved communities. Healthcare providers themselves are often viewed and used as trusted messengers, but it has been unclear as to the effectiveness of that approach over time. In this study, we examine quantitative data on trusted messengers of COVID-19 information at three timepoints (2021,
