A comprehensive framework identifying barriers to global health R&D innovation and access.
Review in BMJ global health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Advancements in research and development (R&D) have the potential to address pressing global health challenges. However, numerous barriers hinder innovation and access, particularly in areas of market failure, and there is an absence of a cohesive consensus on defining these various impediments. This paper presents a framework identifying the barriers that impede global health innovation and hinder equitable access to health technologies.The framework presents clear typologies of barriers across global health R&D thematic areas. These include the market failures that require R&D incentives to stimulate innovation, how the complexity of product registration hinders access within specific regulatory domains and how health system implementation issues prevent affected populations from accessing the tools they require. Current and historical examples are provided for each end-point, and three case studies explore key barriers and how solutions have or may be applied.This analysis contributes by adding to the body of knowledge on global health R&D and provides an analysis tool to policy-makers, researchers and stakeholders involved in addressing the barriers and promoting equitable access to healthcare innovations. The framework serves as a practical tool to guide future research, policy development and implementation efforts towards achieving sustainable global health outcomes.
