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
backgroundEarthquakes are natural events, but the destruction they cause is quite high. Since it is not possible to prevent an earthquake, it is necessary to raise conscious and sensitive individuals about earthquakes and to seek solutions. It was aimed to present the triage, consumables, fluids, and drugs used in the 2020 Elazig earthquake.
methodsAfter the earthquake, the epicenter of which was Sivrice/Elazig on January 24, 2020, all affected victims, pre-hospital triage status, management of emergency, and other inpatient services during the hospitalization, medical interventions including sur-geries, consumables, fluids, and drugs were evaluated retrospectively with the data in the first 24 h.
resultsThe total number of injured after the earthquake in Elazig, which had a magnitude of 6.6 on the Richter scale and lasted for 22 s, was 974. While 37 (3.7%) people died, 18 (1.8%) of them were women. While 34 people died in the wreckage and 3 people in the emergency department, their mean age was 46.0±12.5 years. While 654 patients were registered in the first 24 h, 30 of them were by 112 Command and Control Center and 624 were outpatients. Temporary registration was provided to 320 people as they did not have their identity information.
conclusionBeing prepared and organized before an earthquake, and taking early intervention will provide significant success in the survival of the disaster victims.
