Institution-level collaboration in cardiovascular research in sub-Saharan Africa.
Article in Cardiovascular diagnosis and therapy, 2015. 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
The contribution of sub-Saharan Africa to scientific knowledge on cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention and care is very limited compared to other regions of the world. This underlies the challenge of understanding and addressing the high prevalence of risk factors for CVD in sub-Saharan Africa. The patterns of collaboration between institutions in the region in the area of cardiovascular research are not well documented, although there is evidence of significant collaboration in health research between Africa-based researchers and those in countries outside the region. This study focuses on mapping the linkages between institutions in this region using co-authorship of publications in cardiovascular research from 2005 to 2014. The key institutions in sub-Saharan Africa which engaged in collaboration are identified and the potential of these networks for stimulating the growth of research capacity in this field is discussed.
