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 AND
objectiveProviding trauma services demands high personnel resources and structural costs. The goal of this study was to show if the assignment of trauma patients to a defined A or B resuscitation room treatment as a modified management concept is safe and feasible. MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween May 2020 and January 2021, all resuscitation room trauma patients were included in this single center prospective observational study. All patients admitted to the resuscitation room underwent a classification according to the German S3 guidelines grade of recommendation GoR A and GoR B in polytrauma and the status of the ABCDE sequence to an A and B resuscitation room. The classification was performed by the senior consultant on call via telephone after consultation and discussion of clinical findings.
resultsAll 135 resuscitation room patients were included in the study of whom 42 trauma patients were assigned to the A resuscitation room (A-SR) and 93 were assigned to the B resuscitation room (B-SR). The comparison of the two groups showed that patients in the A‑SR group are more likely to be accompanied by a prehospital emergency physician (80.5%) than patients in the B‑SR group (55.5%). Patients in the B‑SR group showed a significantly higher Glasgow coma scale (GCS). Using the eFAST emergency ultrasound protocol, 2.4% of the A‑SR and 4.3% of the B‑SR patients had trauma-associated pathologies, 26% of the A‑SR and only 3.2% of the B‑SR patients had to be admitted to the ICU, 21.4% of the A‑SR and 1% of the B‑SR patients died within 30 days after trauma. The injury severity scores (ISS) of the A‑SR patients were significantly higher than in the B‑SR group (ISS 28.3 vs. 6.8).
conclusionThe study confirmed that the assignment by the emergency department consultant according to the German S3 guideline in combination with the ABCDE sequence into resuscitation room A or B treatment is feasible, does not compromise the quality of care and is efficient in the use of the personnel resources.
