The inequity of global healthcare in pediatric rheumatology.
Review in Best practice & research. Clinical rheumatology, 2024. 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
In pediatric rheumatology, global health inequity relates to the uneven distribution of healthcare resources, accessibility, and health outcomes among children with rheumatic conditions across various countries, regions, and socioeconomic groups. This inequity can manifest in various ways. This review article provides an overview of common rheumatic diseases, such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, which significantly contribute to and are affected by disparities in global healthcare. Subsequently, we delve into the inequalities in accessing patient care, encompassing issues related to diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, we address challenges in educational advancement and identify research gaps within the field of pediatric rheumatology. We also reveal successful global collaborations, such as a Global Task Force for Pediatric Musculoskeletal Health and special working groups among international organizations, aimed at bridging the disparities gap. Through these efforts, we try to enhance understanding, cooperation, and resource allocation to ensure equal access to quality care worldwide for children with rheumatic conditions. Futhermore, we present a case study from Thailand, highlighting their successful initiatives in developing pediatric rheumatology within their healthcare system.
