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

The outbreak of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has put the resilience of a country's healthcare infrastructure to the most severe test. The challenge of taking emergency measures to optimize the supply of medical resources and effectively meet the medical needs of residents is an important issue that needs to be resolved urgently in the prevention and control of public health emergencies. This paper analyzes cascading failures and optimization of the resilience of the hospital infrastructure system (HIS) with the presence of the COVID-19. It proposes a propagation model to describe the COVID-19 infectious process and establishes a cascading failure model of a HIS to analyze its failure mechanism. It also proposes a method for optimizing the resilience of HIS. Then the supplies and demands in maintaining the operations of HIS are studied, and a restoration strategy is obtained. Finally, simulation analysis of the spread of the COVID-19 is carried out to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method.
