Clinical Predictors of Mortality in Prehospital Distress Calls by Emergency Medical Service Subscribers.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Introduction: Most studies rely on in-hospital data to predict cardiovascular risk and do not include prehospital information that is substantially important for early decision making. The aim of the study was to define clinical parameters in the prehospital setting, which may affect clinical outcomes. (2) Methods: In this population-based study, we performed a retrospective analysis of emergency calls that were made by patients to the largest private emergency medical services (EMS) in Israel, SHL Telemedicine Ltd., who were treated on-site by the EMS team. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and clinical outcomes were analyzed. Mortality was evaluated at three time points: 1, 3, and 12 months' follow-up. The first EMS prehospital measurements of the systolic blood pressure (SBP) were recorded and analyzed. Logistic regression analyses were performed. (3) Results: A total of 64,320 emergency calls were included with a follow-up of 12 months post index EMS call. Fifty-five percent of patients were men and the mean age was 70.2 ± 13.1 years. During follow-up of 12 months, 7.6% of patients died. Age above 80 years (OR 3.34; 95% CI 3.03-3.69,
