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

Accountability is central to human rights, yet it has varied interpretations across contexts. Conventionally, accountability denotes blame and punishment or emphasizes hierarchical relationships between claim holders and duty bearers. However, accountability cannot be an episodic event. In health governance, continuous and iterative improvements are required to reflect changing social, economic, and political circumstances. Accordingly, we define "temporal accountability" as an institutional design that incorporates time-bound obligations for implementing corrective actions and remedial measures. Through a case study of Taiwan's Constitutional Court decision on expatriate residents' financial contributions, we analyze temporal accountability in action and draw broader lessons for human rights accountability, proposing measurable indicators and guiding principles of temporal accountability.
