Mobile applications for the assessment of paediatric burn injuries in the Pacific Islands: A Samoan perspective for global research engagement.
Article in Journal of public health research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Burn injuries are a major public health issue, and the rate of childhood mortality from burn injuries is over seven times higher in low and middle-income countries than in high-income nations. Mobile technologies should prove useful in resource-limited clinical settings, as well as improve the quality of data available for monitoring and evaluation activities and health service research studies. This report advocates for the Polynesian nation of Samoa to engage with global research efforts on the use of mobile technologies for burn injury assessments. This includes registration with the WHO Global Burn Registry, and membership to the International Society for Burn Injuries. Our advocacy is timely as (1) the Ministry of Health of Samoa has appointed an inaugural Research Lead position to support national health research efforts in 2024 and (2) the on-going implementation of the national Health Information System 'Tamanu' supports the inclusion of mobile technology health applications.
