Capacity Building for Research in Critical Care: A Pilot Program in the Eastern Mediterranean Region.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Research productivity in the Eastern Mediterranean Region is relatively low in all fields, including critical care. We describe a capacity-building research program that was piloted with 11 clinicians from the Eastern Mediterranean Region, who had minimal research experience. The program was conducted over 1 year, with a structure that specifically addressed factors that contribute to low research productivity. We describe the structure of the program, the faculty involved, the feasibility, and challenges faced, as well as the impact of the program on research output. At a small scale, the program was generally feasible and demonstrated promising results. Evaluating the feasibility of conducting such a program over a longer period of time and with a larger group of participants is necessary since research capacity-building programs require multiple years to demonstrate a significant impact on research output.
