1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Achieving universal health coverage (UHC), which means ensuring access to high quality and equitable services by all without financial hardship, requires local evidence. To find interventions appropriate to local needs, local knowledge and evidence are required in addition to global evidence. Thus, every country should have its own plan for research production and utilization and strengthening researchers' capacities to achieve UHC. To accomplish the goals of UHC, the research system should be able to determine the research priorities and agenda, collect resources, improve the capacity for evidence generation, and maximally utilize the country's capacity for finding local solutions by establishing research networks. In this study, inputs for UHC research priority setting in Iran and its challenges have been discussed.
