1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThere have been criticisms that local authorities develop disaster planning independently, which led to less sensitiveness and responsibility of community-based organizations (CBOs). Disasters planning should incorporate into CBOs' management processes. This study aims to set goals of a community-based plan based on preparedness capacities that CBOs need to have in the COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis cross-sectional study used a prevalidated and reliable questionnaire assessing (CBOs). The tool assesses preparedness in the field of planning, training, and infrastructure. Forty CBOs met the inclusion criteria as assisting or cooperating agencies during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, key informants, who simultaneously have been working in the health system and CBOs, prioritized low-scale items that have shown capacity gaps according to effects on the vulnerable group, sustainability, and capability of the health system. Descriptive statistics performed using SPSS18 software (SPSS Inc., Chicago, USA).

resultsThe results showed that the preparedness of CBOs was weak in the field of planning, training, and infrastructure. Besides, overlaps of CBOs' resources and covering the clients' medical needs in the COVID-19 pandemic were the most priority that needs to be intervened.

conclusionProviding medical needs by CBOs require legal legitimacy assigned by health authority, especially in epidemic-prone diseases. In addition, assigning a coordinator to set a priority list and mutual agreements authoried by health departments can solve the problem of overlapped resources. Therefore, functional roles of CBOs in the pandemic should focus mostly on resource allocation and the medical needs of clients to set goals and functional objectives.
