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
objectivesTo determine the level of sustainability of rapid response teams (RRTs) among a group of hospitals that participated in a statewide collaborative to implement and sustain RRTs. SETTING AND SAMPLE: Fifty-six hospitals located in a southeastern state in the United States participated in a statewide 9-month collaborative that provided organization leaders with resources to implement and sustain RRTs. Thirty-three of these hospitals completed the electronic survey. Two hospitals were excluded because of missing data. MEASUREMENT: The RRT-Institutionalization Scale (RRT-IS), adapted from the Level of Institutionalization Scale, measured the degree of institutionalization (i.e., passages, routines, and niche saturation) across four subsystems: production, maintenance, supportive, and managerial.
resultsThirty-one hospitals participated (response rate 55%). Rapid response team sustainability levels ranged from 1.0 to 5.98 (mean = 3.78, 95% CI = 3.40-4.17). The highest sustainability score was reported in the managerial subsystem (median = 5.3, IQR = 4.5-7.33), and the lowest score was reported in the supportive subsystem (median = 1.0, IQR = 1.0-2.0).
conclusionsRapid response team sustainability levels varied across hospitals in the collaborative. Different levels of sustainability were also observed across organizational subsystems. The lack of resources, staff, and dedicated funds hampered organizations' sustainability efforts.
