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 Studies have demonstrated the use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion catheters of the aorta (REBOA) in the setting of postpartum hemorrhage and traumatic hemorrhagic shock. However, REBOA is infrequently utilized leading to a lack of clinician comfort. This study's aim was to demonstrate the utility of REBOA in a hemorrhaging pregnant trauma patient and improve clinician comfort with the placement of REBOA while emphasizing collaboration between medical specialties. Methods A multidisciplinary in-situ simulation was developed for the management of a pregnant patient with an abdominal gunshot wound evaluated by obstetrics and surgery teams. A trauma survey, emergency c-section, massive transfusion protocol (MTP), and evaluation for and placement of REBOA were indicated during the simulation. A standardized Return on Learning questionnaire was utilized to determine participants' reactions and confidence gained during the simulation. Results A total of 32 of 41 participants completed the survey (78%). A statistically significant increase in confidence was reported in the ability to prioritize the care of a pregnant patient with hemorrhagic shock (p = 0.016), apply MTP to the appropriate clinical setting (p = 0.03), and analyze critical decisions made for abdominal trauma in pregnant patients (p = 0.006). Specifically for physicians, a significant increase in confidence in the ability to identify indications/contraindications for REBOA placement in hemorrhaging patients was observed (p = 0.021). Conclusions A multidisciplinary simulation for the management of a pregnant patient in hemorrhagic shock secondary to penetrating abdominal trauma improved learner confidence in MTP, care of pregnant patients in hemorrhagic shock, and abdominal trauma in pregnancy. Physician learners gained confidence in indications for REBOA placement in abdominal trauma. This simulation was highly relevant to all participants.
