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
backgroundGlobally, pneumonia is the leading cause of children under age five morbidity and mortality with 98% of deaths in developing countries.
objectiveThis study aimed to identify the determinants of longitudinal measures of pneumonia and time to convalescence or recovery of under five admitted pneumonia patients at Felege Hiwot Referral Hospital, Bahir Dar, Ethiopia.
methodsA prospective cohort study was conducted among a randomly selected sample of 101 pneumonia patients using simple random sampling who were on follow up from December 2019 to February 2020. A Linear mixed effect model were used for the longitudinal outcomes and joint model for modeling both longitudinal and time to event outcomes jointly respectively.
resultsThe significant values of shared parameters in the survival sub model shows that the use of joint modeling of multivariate longitudinal outcomes with the time to event outcome is the best model compared to separate models. The estimated values of the association parameters: - 0.297(p-value = 0.0021), - 0.121) (p-value = < 0.001) and 0.5452 (p-value = 0.006) indicates association of respiratory rate, pulse rate and oxygen saturation respectively with time to recovery. The significant values show that there is an evidence to say that there is a negative relationship between longitudinal measures of respiratory rate and pulse rate with time to recovery and there is positive relationship between longitudinal measures of oxygen saturation with time to recovery. Variables age, birth order, dangerous signs, severity and visit time were significant factors on the longitudinal measure of pulse rate. The significant factors related to longitudinal measures of oxygen saturation were birth order, severity and visit. From this we can conclude that birth order, severity and visit were significant variables that simultaneously affect the longitudinal measures of respiratory rate, pulse rate and oxygen saturation of patients at 5% level of significance.
conclusionResults of multivariate joint analysis shows that severity was significant variable that jointly affects the three longitudinal measures and time to recovery of pneumonia patients and we can conclude that patients with severe pneumonia have high values of respiratory rate and pulse rate as well as less amount of oxygen saturation and they need longer time to recover from the disease.
