Exploration of Public Perceptions of Wastewater Surveillance, United States, June 2024.
Article in Emerging infectious diseases, 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
Community wastewater surveillance (WS) is a valuable tool for informing public health action, but its effects on individual health behaviors rely on public understanding and awareness. We analyzed 2,024 free text responses from a national survey on perceptions of WS conducted during June 19-23, 2024, to gain insights into public perceptions of WS. Primary themes among 1,181 detailed responses included varying levels of trust in government and authorities, the need for more information about the effectiveness and accuracy of monitoring, desire to understand public health implications, and the need for more education and communication. Those findings could help inform community engagement strategies as WS continues to evolve.
