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

Objective: This study aims to describe the implementation of the principles and essential elements of the fundamental right to health (FRH) in Colombia. Methods: An integrative review was conducted between February 23 and March 6, 2021, using six databases. A total of 63 studies addressing the principles and elements of the FRH in Colombia were included. Results: Four higher-order analytical categories were identified: (1) barriers to access and responsiveness to health needs; (2) ethics, humanization of care, respect, and confidentiality; (3) insurance affiliation within the General System of Social Security in Health (SGSSS); and (4) availability, networks, and integration of healthcare services. These categories reflect structural, institutional, and relational dimensions shaping the realization of the FRH. Conclusions: The realization of the FRH in Colombia remains constrained by structural determinants, governance weaknesses, and systemic fragmentation, particularly affecting vulnerable populations. These findings highlight the need for integrated policy and governance reforms.
