Telepathology in Nigeria for Global Health Collaboration.
Article in Annals of global health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Inadequate pathology personnel and high cost of running a Pathology facility are factors affecting access to timely and quality pathology services in resource-constrained settings. Telepathology is a novel technology that allows Pathologists to remotely assess collected samples. Though the initial cost of setting up a telepathology facility is high, its overall benefits far outweigh the cost. Its usefulness as a quality assurance measure, as a permanent image data storage system, in reducing costs associated with repeated slide preparations, reducing turn-around time of pathology reports, in collaborative research and in teaching has been well documented. This paper highlights the experiences, gains and challenges encountered in the deployment of telepathology in two resource-constrained settings in Nigeria. Overcoming the challenges associated with setting up a telepathology service in sub-Saharan Africa is important as it has the potential to improve overall health outcomes in a medically underserved region while ensuring technology and knowledge transfer are achieved.
