The strength and weakness of Mongolian healthcare: from nomadic Gobi to Ulaanbaatar.
Article in Journal of global health, 2025. 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
Mongolia, the world's second-largest landlocked country, has a healthcare system shaped by Soviet and Chinese influences. While its capital, Ulaanbaatar, houses nearly half of the population with well-developed medical facilities, rural and remote areas, including the Gobi region, face significant disparities in healthcare access. Urban migration to Ulaanbaatar is driven by better economic opportunities, healthcare services, and infrastructure. Traditional Mongolian medicine (TMM) remains an integral part of healthcare, particularly in rural areas, where it is often the primary form of treatment. Despite the adoption of universal healthcare coverage, rural healthcare struggles with workforce shortages, outdated infrastructure, and limited resources. Nurses and midwives lack professional autonomy, and preventive care remains underdeveloped. To address these challenges, Mongolia can strengthen global collaborations through its 'third neighbour policy', expanding partnerships with countries like the USA and Japan to improve healthcare education and workforce capacity. Enhancing online training, telemedicine, and disease prevention programmes, particularly in rural areas, would further support healthcare development. Expanding nursing and midwifery roles, integrating health screenings into community events, and leveraging digital health technologies can bridge healthcare gaps. A holistic approach integrating modern and traditional medicine can lead to a more resilient, accessible, and culturally appropriate healthcare system.
