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

The article describes and discusses several key elements of the paediatric healthcare system in Israel, including paediatric training, family and community paediatrics, hospital-based paediatric services, preventive care services, and special programs such as the "Drop of Milk" (Tipat Halav) program. Although child care in Israel has gained several notable achievements, such as a low infant mortality rate, there are several significant challenges for the coming years. These include training of enough paediatricians and periodic updating of training programs to fulfil needs and provide an adequate preventive care from fetal life through infancy, childhood, and adulthood. In addition, paediatricians in Israel should continue to be involved in national public health programs to reduce health inequities among mothers and children and reduce health disparities among certain geographic areas and various populations. Graduates of paediatric residency are expected to be able to address the new technologies, the requirements for personal medicine and on-line medicine, and to be able to deal with both pure "medical" issues, and public health, lifestyle, and environmental issues.
