A Phenomenological Analysis of Knowledge, Impact and Coping Strategies to Climate Change: Experiences of Persons With Albinism.
Article in Public health challenges, 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
Background: Persons with albinism (PWA) in Ghana are disproportionately affected by climate change due to a lack of melanin in their skin, which increases their exposure and vulnerability to the effects of climate change. However, research on this group in Ghana remains limited. Purpose: To explore the lived experiences of PWA regarding climate change knowledge, impact and adaptation strategies in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis (STM). Methods: Data were collected from 17 PWA in the STM, using a five-item interview guide and analysed through constitutive phenomenological analysis. Recruitment and data collection occurred between 10 June 2021 and 27 August 2023. Results: We found that PWA in STM possess inadequate knowledge regarding climate change, self-reported eye and skin conditions and utilize insufficient protection and adaptation strategies. Conclusion: Although PWA in STM adopt various strategies to cope with climate change effects, these are insufficient for their full protection. The social welfare department should register these individuals to ensure they benefit from government and NGO support. Future research should adopt quantitative approaches and extend this study nationwide.
