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
The 2007 guidelines "Positioning for prophylaxis and therapy of pulmonary disorders" were completely revised in 2015 on behalf of the German Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine. With regard to practical and scientific relevance, early mobilization of patients in critical care has been included in the guidelines for the first time. Furthermore, the recommendations for prone positioning have been updated, based on current evidence in medicine and nursing. In addition, recommendations regarding unsuitable positions that may actually harm patients were made. As such, the flat supine position should only be used in cases of urgent medical or nursing needs. This underlines the importance of a moderately elevated head of bed position (20(o)-45(o)) in mechanically ventilated patients.
