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

Population health affects the sustainability of socio-economic development, the perceived personal risks being alcohol consumption, smoking and obesity, greenhouse gas emissions representing a common environmental risk. The aim of this research article is to examine the potential impact of risk factors on national health expenditure over the period 2013-2021 in selected European countries divided into several groups according to health risk indicators. We examine two basic models - a harmful consumption model and an environmental model, the main dependent variable being total healthcare expenditure. To analyse partial relationships between risky behaviour or air pollution and healthcare spending, linear panel regression models were constructed assessing how country characteristics contribute to explaining the variation in healthcare costs. The results of this study suggest that sustainable health financing would benefit from more effective prevention of increased unhealthy consumption.
