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

Measles eradication, not yet the target of a global resolution, awaits global commitments by governments and partners. This essay examines ten proposed innovations that aim to bring the global community closer to the date when it will be prepared to launch a global eradication effort. We look especially at the value of synergies between measles elimination and Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. The underfunded GPEI could be re-energized by closer integration with measles/rubella eradication. This point is especially relevant in an era of declining donor commitment to public health. Above all, we are pushing for new approaches more quickly to reach eradication of measles with approaches that complement the goals of polio eradication.
