Safeguarding in dance as a public health issue: a systems-level policy framework.
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
Safeguarding in dance is an under-recognized public health policy issue, characterized by inconsistent implementation and limited regulation. Drawing on public health frameworks, we conceptualize safeguarding-related harms through a biopsychosocial lens, encompassing physical, psychological, and social impacts. These harms are shaped by interacting factors across individual, interpersonal, organizational, and structural levels. The absence of systemic surveillance and regulatory oversight limits prevention, early intervention, monitoring, and evaluation of safeguarding practices. We propose six complementary policy actions: national surveillance systems, safeguarding audits, a quality mark, clear reporting frameworks, funding-linked accountability, and trauma- and violence-informed care. Together, these actions provide a coordinated, systems-level response, improving accountability, and promoting safe, healthy, and more equitable dance participation.
