The scope of the global history of science: an essay on James Poskett's Horizons.
Article in Historia, ciencias, saude--Manguinhos, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This historiographic review poses a reflection on the exciting field of the global history of science, and its methods and theory. We use the reading of Horizons: a global history of science, by James Poskett, as an exercise to ponder the scope and limitations of this historiographic approach. The analysis focuses on the concepts of otherness, globality, and circulation, three major transversal and interrelated themes treated in the book. These issues come to light through the author's narrative analysis, and we consider that any writing about global history should deeply reflect upon such themes.
