Getting the balance right: thick and thin approaches to harmonizing state particularism and the human right to health.
Article in Health expectations : an international journal of public participation in health care and health policy, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
contextThe right to health requires States to achieve the highest standard of health attainable for all. A culturally sensitive approach is needed to respect States' interpretation and implementation of the universal right to health, and document their progress.
objectiveThis viewpoint suggests how to harmonize the (i) human right to health and (ii) the particularism of State values and interests. STRATEGY: I describe the 'thickness' with which individual States recognize the right to health, as a dimension of universality, and then implement that recognition, as a dimension of particularism. Recognition and implementation by States need to be thick to demonstrate 'glocal' rationality, as characterizes the right to health as a Webberian ideal type. Examples of variation in the thickness of States' interpretation and implementation of the right to health are discussed.
conclusionIt is possible to work towards harmonizing the right to health, and State particularism, by maximizing the thickness with which individual States recognize this right and progressively implement it.
