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 aim of the study was to assess the access of prisoners to healthcare services, as well as the level of satisfaction with the provided services and health assessment among prisoners.
methodsThe research was conducted in one of the penitentiary centers in Poland among people jailed between 1 January to 31 January 2020. The response rate of the self-administrated questionnaire was 52.05% (469/901) participants. There were 389 men and 77 women.
resultsPrisoners assessed access to health services including GP doctors, specialist doctors, dentists, and hospitals in 3 categories: "bad" ranged: 27.03-67.60%; "medium" ranged: 22.54-53.57%; "good" ranged: 7.02-33.96% depending on the type of arrest, but no statistical significance was demonstrated. Satisfaction with the health services defined as "bad" ranged: 25.00-61.11%; "medium" ranged: 18.97-55.56%; "good" ranged: 5.56-34.62% depending on the type of arrest but no statistical significance was demonstrated. Of 469 prisoners, 215 prisoners (45.84%) declared no addictions. The frequency of addiction does not differ depending on the place/type of punishment served (
conclusionsMost of the prisoners described access to health services as "bad", except female prisoners from a semi-open facility. In turn, satisfaction with healthcare services was most often assessed as "bad", except for temporarily arrested men and female prisoners from a semi-open facility.
