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
introductionGeneralized secondary peritonitis is one of the most common emergencies encountered in surgical departments with a mortality of up to 20%. While early prognostic assessment of peritonitis is essential for the objective classification of the severity of the disease, the late presentation of the majority of patients to health facilities affects this situation, further complicating effective management and promoting the occurrence of complications. In Haiti, few studies on surgical pathologies are available, and with regard to peritonitis, only two thesis works have been listed on the subject. This study aims to: explore the demographic, clinical and etiological characteristics of peritonitis in the main referral hospital in the metropolitan region of the Haiti, and evaluate the main delays and its relationship with the severity of the disease by measuring the MPI score. METHODOLOGY: It is a correlational descriptive study, retrospectively carried out over a period of 6 years, from January 2013 to December 2018 in the surgical department of the Hospital of the State University of Haiti. The study population is composed of all patients diagnosed, hospitalized and operated on in the peritonitis ward during the study period Pearson's correlation with α < 0.05 was used as the significance threshold and the correlation of complications and duration of management by Spearman's correlation to assess the relationship between sex, age group, complications and length of hospital stay. A multiple linear regression will be done for the most significant correlations. The comparison of the means was made by the Z test, with α < 0.05 as the significance threshold, and the student T test for variables with two modalities such as complication. The ANOVA test was used to cross-reference dependent and independent variables with more than 2 modalities, and the Pearson chi-square test for qualitative variables with etiological and demographic diagnoses.
