The need for multicentre cardiovascular clinical trials in Asia.
Article in Nature reviews. Cardiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Historically, the USA and European countries have been the dominant figures in medical research. However, in the past 10 years, Asia has emerged as a new 'hot spot' for clinical research owing to the tremendous potential generated by steady economic growth, remarkable advances in research and development capacity, and an expanding population. However, investigators involved with the set-up and conduct of multicentre trials in such a vast and heterogeneous continent face huge challenges-bridging the fundamental differences between the Asian countries, such as languages, resources, regulatory procedural timelines, and the general understanding of clinical research. In this Perspectives article, we explain why Asia should be established as a hub for large multicentre trials, discuss the challenges involved, and highlight the importance of a strong collaborative infrastructure for multiple investigational sites in this culturally diverse continent.
