Patients with Chronic Diseases Who Travel: Need for Global Access to Timely Health Care Data.
Article in Clinical epidemiology, 2022. 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
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, international travel is expected to increase in the future. Before the pandemic, the United Nations World Tourism Organization estimated that by 2030 nearly 2 billion people would travel internationally each year. This raises the risk of unavailable medical record information if a complication or an emergency occurs in another country (particularly problematic for the growing numbers of older travelers with multimorbidity). We propose that an international medical record containing current health information be developed to allay this additional risk of traveling.
