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 AND
aimsPatients' outcome after ICU transfer reflect hospital's post-ICU care status. This study assessed association of after-hour ICU transfer on patient outcome. SUBJECTS AND
methodsSingle-centre, retrospective analysis of data between March 2016 and April 2017 was performed at a tertiary-care hospital in India. Patient data were collected on all consecutive ICU admissions during study period. Patients were categorized according to ICU transfer time into daytime (08:00-19:59 hours) and after-hour (20:00-07:59 hours). Patients transferred to other ICUs/hospitals, died in ICU, or discharged home from ICU were excluded. Only ?rst ICU admission was considered for outcome analysis. Primary outcome-hospital mortality; secondary outcomes-ICU readmission and hospital length of stay (LOS). All analysis were adjusted for illness severity.
resultsOf 1857 patients admitted during study period,1356 were eligible for study; out of which 53.9% were males and 383(28%) patients transferred during after-hour. Mean age of two groups (daytime
conclusionAfter-hour-transfers from ICU is associated with significantly higher hospital mortality. Hospital LOS and readmission rates are similar for daytime and after-hour -transfers. HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Chatterjee S, Sinha S
