Variability in research culture across busy catheterisation labs in the Asia-Pacific region.
Article in AsiaIntervention, 2024. 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
Background: Information related to research culture in the busy catheterisation (cath) labs across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is sparse. Aims: The aims of this study were to examine the variability in research culture in busy cath labs in the APAC region and to propose a roadmap for hospitals to develop in-house research capabilities in conjunction with industry and academia. Methods: Data related to research practices in the APAC region were collected from busy cath labs (at least 250 angioplasty/year) and analysed. Results were shared with research experts to understand the challenges in institutional research and create a roadmap for hospitals to develop research capabilities. Results: A total of 220 respondents from 62 cath labs (88.6%) across 13 APAC countries participated in the survey. A wide variation was noted in research culture across APAC countries. Well-established infrastructure was reported in Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Singapore, and Japan. Large multicentre trials were common in South Korea, while routine follow-ups were common in Japan. Linking medical records across hospitals/states was considered challenging. Research exposure and training were limited in the APAC region. The experts suggested a roadmap, including creating a conducive regulatory environment, forming synergistic goals, training programs for the professionals involved in research, and leveraging best practices, for improving the research culture in APAC. Conclusions: Clinical research in cardiology has grown significantly in the APAC region, with a huge research potential in China and India. Implementing measures to improve research training and involvement of the industry will boost the research culture in the APAC region.
