A Retrospective Cohort Study of Red Cell Alloimmunisation in Rural, Remote, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples Admitted to Intensive Care in the Northern Territory, Australia.

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
Red cell (RC) alloantibodies occur on exposure to non-self RC antigens in transfusion and pregnancy (typically IgG and clinically significant) or in association with non-RC immune environmental factors (typically IgM and not clinically significant). In Australia, the risk of RC alloimmunisation in First Nations peoples is unknown. We assessed the epidemiology, specificity, and antecedents of RC alloimmunisation via a data linkage retrospective cohort study of Northern Territory (NT) intensive care unit (ICU) patients (2015-2019). Of 4183 total patients, 50.9% were First Nations. In First Nations versus non-First Nations patients, the period prevalence of alloimmunisation was 10.9% versus 2.3%, with 390 versus 72 prevalent alloantibodies detected in 232 versus 48 alloimmunised patients, of which 135 (34.6%) versus 52 (72.2%) were clinically significant specificities. Baseline and follow-up alloantibody testing were available for 1367 patients, in whom new incident clinically significant alloantibodies developed in 4.5% First Nations versus 1.1% non-First Nations patients. On Cox proportional hazards modelling, adjusted hazard ratios (HR) showed First Nations status (HR 2.67 (95% CI 1.05-6.80),
