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
objectiveThe objective was to determine emergency medicine residents' ability to perform pharmaceutical calculations.
methodsA six-question needs-assessment survey of emergency medicine residents was conducted at a citywide conference in 2016. Residents performed simple pharmaceutical calculations and were queried regarding resources they typically use to aid in performing calculations.
resultsFifty-three emergency medicine residents out of 110 attendees (48%) completed the survey (postgraduate year [PGY]-1
conclusionsEmergency medicine residents performed poorly when completing pharmaceutical calculations. This may contribute to increased patient morbidity and mortality. Internet resource use increased as the years of training increased. PharmD services were extensively utilized by all resident regardless of years of training.
