[Citizen science for pandemic preparedness: enabling conditions for development of citizen knowledge in times of crisis].
Article in TSG : tijdschrift voor gezondheidswetenschappen, 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
Communities and individual citizens play a crucial role in pandemic preparedness, not only in developing and implementing plans but also in increasing their own resilience. Citizen science can contribute to this by, for example, identifying disease outbreaks, collecting and analyzing data, and supporting policymaking and risk communication. The recent COVID-19 pandemic showed that enabling conditions for using citizen science for pandemic preparedness are not in place. Therefore, this research focuses on the enabling conditions needed to effectively engage citizens in knowledge development for pandemic preparedness. We conducted an exploratory qualitative study consisting of fourteen interviews and four workshops and identified two overarching enabling conditions: public and professional recognition of citizen science and an accessible infrastructure for knowledge sharing and collaboration. Investing in a solid social, material, and technological infrastructure before a crisis strikes is necessary for fostering citizen engagement in knowledge development for pandemic preparedness. By strengthening these enabling conditions and taking the role of citizens in research seriously, citizen science can contribute not only to more effective pandemic preparedness but also to broader societal resilience in future crises.
