Improving Health Outcomes in Women Who Use Traditional Open Fire Cookstoves by Addressing Cooking Behaviors: A Longitudinal Cohort Study.
Article in International journal of environmental research and 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
Approximately one-third of the global population cooks over open fires in the home, which are responsible for millions of deaths per year globally. The aim of this longitudinal cohort study was to develop, implement, and evaluate an intervention to improve the cooking behaviors of women in a rural Nicaraguan community. The study employed the Community Health Action Model for Participatory Behavior Change (CHAMP-BC) framework to develop a novel approach to improving cooking behaviors and reducing symptoms associated with household air pollution. The study was conducted from October 2007 to March 2018. Community health needs assessments and community forums were conducted. Readiness to change surveys were administered. Pre- and post-test cookstove implementation surveys were conducted. One hundred sixty-seven primary cooks, primarily women (99%), consented to participate in the improved cookstove program and were followed from baseline for up to seven years post-intervention. There were significant improvements in cough (
