Developing a Novel Mobile Health (mHealth) Tool to Improve Dehydration Assessment and Management in Patients with Acute Diarrhea in Resource-Limited Settings.
Article in Rhode Island medical journal (2013), 2019. 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
Dehydration due to diarrhea is one of the main causes of death worldwide, yet no clinical tools for accurately assessing and managing dehydration in patients with acute diarrhea have been created for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In 2012, Brown University's Department of Emergency Medicine began partnering with the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease, Bangladesh in order to address some of these gaps. Out of this partnership, the DHAKA Score, a clinical diagnostic model for assessing dehydration in children under five years of age with acute diarrhea, was developed. Building upon the success of the DHAKA Study, researchers at both institutions have launched the NIRUDAK Study earlier this year to develop and validate similar age-specific clinical diagnostic models yet shifting the patient population to those over five. Improving diagnostic approaches and fluid management may reduce unnecessary utilization of already limited healthcare resources as well as the morbidity and mortality that occurs due to misdiagnosis.
