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
Background: Internet hospitals introduced in China have effectively reduced service time and space, promoted high-quality pediatric medical resources to grassroots areas, solved the contradiction between supply and demand of pediatric medical resources, and met patients' increasing multi-level and diversified medical service needs. However, pediatricians' attitudes toward and satisfaction with the use of internet hospitals remain unknown. Objective: This study aimed to investigate pediatricians' knowledge of, use of, and satisfaction with internet hospitals in order to identify major issues in internet hospital development, and to understand pediatricians' attitudes and opinions on the construction, development, and use of internet hospitals. Materials and methods: A total of 625 pediatricians in 17 public tertiary hospitals in Shanghai were surveyed from November 1-30, 2021. Five hundred and thirty four pediatricians completed the survey, and the response rate was 85.44%. Pediatricians' baseline demographic data were collected and information about their use of and satisfaction with internet hospitals. Results: About 70.22% (375/534) of pediatricians knew about internet hospitals and about 54.68% (292/534) use internet hospitals for patient consultation, diagnosis, and treatment. Utilized services mainly focused on online consultation (271/292, 92.81%), online follow-up consultation (174/292, 59.59%), and health sciences (111/292, 38.01%). Online services were provided by 69.18% (202/292) of pediatricians for less than 1 h a day, and 75.00% (219/292) responded to fewer than five patient consultations online every day. Pediatricians' overall satisfaction with internet hospitals was low (3.59 ± 0.92 points), user experience, systems functions, operation processes, service prices, and performance rewards of internet hospitals were main influencing factors. Pediatricians are enthusiastic about further development of internet hospitals, with 87.83% (469/534) willing to provide services on the internet hospital platform. Conclusion: Most pediatricians view internet hospitals favorably and are eager to contribute to the development of online diagnosis and treatment services. The development of internet hospitals will be more strongly supported by improving pediatricians' satisfaction and mobilizing their enthusiasm and initiative to participate in internet medical services.
