1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 Lesotho, the Ministry of Health and key donors have made significant advancements to develop digital health solutions specific to HIV services including an eRegister which is interoperable with the health management information system, pharmacy services and the laboratory information system. New investments from the Millennium Challenge Corporation will expand digital health services to all reported communicable and non-communicable disease areas at health facilities throughout the country. This paper explores how digital health interventions designed to support comprehensive HIV care can be leveraged to provide universal digital health coverage. Specifically, three priority areas will be addressed: (i) governance, security, and system architecture (ii) power, connectivity, and equipment (iii) human resources and change management.
