Mobile Ambulatory Application Asafny and Traditional Phone Request 997: A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Open access emergency medicine : OAEM, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeThis study aimed to determine whether there was a time difference between the ambulatory application Asafny and traditional type 997 in reaching people in need and interacting appropriately. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study was conducted using retrospective cross-sectional study. A total of 2120 ambulance requests was extracted from Saudi Red Crescent Authority servers in Eastern Province, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The requests were extracted between 2017 and 2019.
resultsThere were no significant differences between the two methods of request. In 2019, the shortest times for all phases of requests were recorded. "Ordinary patient" was the most common cause for requests.
conclusionOver the years, efforts by the Saudi Red Crescent Authority facilitated improvements in ambulatory services by adapting new technology and services. This has helped reduce times for all phases of emergency requests.
