Implementation of public health tasks by Polish municipalities in 2019-2024: a cross-sectional study.
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
Background: Public authorities, including local government units, play a fundamental role in shaping public health (PH) policy. To date, the activities of self-government communities in the domain of PH have not been the subject of scholarly research. The study aims to characterise the activity of Polish municipalities in implementing PH tasks during the period 2019-2024. Materials and methods: The cross-sectional survey was conducted via Computer-Assisted Web Interview using a proprietary questionnaire prepared with input from experts in PH. All municipalities in Poland were invited to participate ( Results: The analysis included responses from 601 municipalities, with 69.9% having performed PH tasks between 2019 and 2024. Rural municipalities perform PH tasks less frequently ( Conclusion: Adequate measures should be implemented to support the development of health policies in smaller local authorities. Factors that warrant particular attention are the number of employees involved in PH tasks, the number of potential task implementers, and the existence of a Municipality Development Strategy.
