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
backgroundSince COVID-19 has been declared as a global pandemic, South Nations, Nationalities People's Region, Ethiopia, has been responding by establishing strong structure. The response against the disease requires consolidated efforts, However, there is paucity of information about the patterns of multisectoral collaboration actions in the region. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of exploring the patterns of multisectoral collaboration against the COVID-19 using a qualitative case study design. Data were collected by key informant interview and document review and analyzed using a content analysis framework focused on case study data analysis.
resultThe study has indicated a unique perspective in establishing functional multisectoral approach with strong courage and motivation of most involved stakeholder. Almost all stakeholders have shown clear understanding about the multidimensional burdens the disease could cause and the necessities for joint efforts to tackle the multidimensional problems. The study further elucidated that despite the encouraging beginning, the eventual slowdown undertakings in the joint actions. This included failure to meet regularly to monitor and evaluate as stated earlier and societies' reluctances despite consistent information dissemination.
conclusionA firm understanding about multidimensional impacts of COVID-19 by all stakeholders was revealed in the region. Remarkable achievements were observed at the early stage of disease prevention and control responses with encouraging multisectoral approach as guided by the convergence model. However, several setbacks were observed in the process of multisectoral approach intervention as indicated by the conceptual framework. Hence, to ensure sustainable MSA, revitalization of the initial commitment of all stakeholders and strengthening MSA considering end-to end approach of the convergence frame is crucial; subsequent quantitative study recommended to establish wider determinants on success of MSA.
