The usability of ventilator maintenance user interface: A comparative evaluation of user task performance, workload, and user experience.
Article in Science progress. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Poor usability designed of ventilator user interface can easily lead to human error. In this study, we evaluated the usability design of ventilator maintenance user interface and identified problems related to the usability of user interface that could easily cause human error. Sixteen respiratory therapists participated in this usability study. The usability of the ventilator maintenance user interface was evaluated by participants' task performance (task completion time, task error rate), physiological workload (eye-fixation duration) and perceived workload (NASA-TLX), and user experience (questionnaire). For task performance, task completion time and task error rate showed significant differences. For task completion time, significant difference was found when conducting ventilator self-test (
