Risk factors for cancellation after dispatch of rapid response cars for prehospital emergency care: a single-center, case-control study.
Article in Acute medicine & surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimThe objective of this study is to identify the risk factors for cancellation after dispatch of rapid response cars (RRC) for prehospital emergency care.
methodsWe retrospectively extracted data from all RRC cases dispatched from our hospital between April 2017 and March 2019. A total of 1,440 cases were included in our study and divided into either the "cancelled" group (
resultsMultivariable analysis showed that distance from the hospital to the scene (odds ratio [OR] 1.25; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.21-1.28), suspicion of cardiopulmonary arrest with no witness information (OR 7.61; 95% CI, 4.13-14.00), dyspnea (OR 2.22; 95% CI, 1.19-4.11), and suicide by hanging (OR 3.49; 95% CI, 1.37-8.89) were independent risk factors for cancellation.
conclusionsIn our study, a greater distance from the hospital to the scene, suspicion of cardiopulmonary arrest with no witness information, dyspnea, and suicide by hanging were identified as independent risk factors for cancellation after dispatch of RRC. Evaluating the risk factors for cancellation at individual facilities could help hospitals adjust their dispatch criteria to allocate limited medical resources more effectively.
