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

Background: Shenzhen is unique in its need for ad hoc responses to emergencies. The need for emergency medicine also demonstrates a trend of sustained growth. Objective: A three-dimensional and efficiently connected emergency medical management model using fifth generation mobile communication technology (5G) was established to improve the efficiency and level of management in emergency medicine. Method: A mixed-frequency band private network collaborative emergency treatment mode was built under daily emergency scenarios using 5G. The efficiency of a three-dimensional telemedicine treatment mode was tested using prehospital emergency medicine. Also, the feasibility of quickly establishing a temporary network information system using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and/or high-throughput communication satellites under disaster-caused power outages and network interruptions was examined. A monitoring system was constructed for suspected cases using 5G amid public health emergencies, which raised the Emergency Department's efficiency and security in responding to the pandemic. Results: The three-dimensional rescue system supported by 5G showed that the radius of the emergency medical rescue services expanded from 5 to 60 km, and the cross-district emergency reaction time reduced from 1 h to <20 min. Thus, it was feasible to construct a communication network expeditiously with devices carried by UAV under disastrous scenarios. The system developed based on 5G could be used in managing suspected cases of public emergencies. Among the 134 suspected cases in the early stage of the pandemic, no nosocomial infection was detected. Conclusion: A three-dimensional, efficiently connected emergency medical management system based on 5G was constructed, following which the emergency rescue radius quickly expanded and the emergency response time reduced. Thus, with the aid of new technology, an emergency information network system was built expeditiously under specific scenarios, such as a natural disaster, and the level of management under public health emergencies advances. The confidentiality of patient information is a critical issue regarding the application of new technology.
