[Role of German cardiac arrest centers in mediating basic life support].
Article in Medizinische Klinik, Intensivmedizin und Notfallmedizin, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveDespite a measurable increase in recent years, the bystander resuscitation rate in Germany lags behind the European comparison. Special centers for the care of patients after cardiac arrest, so-called cardiac arrest centers (CAC), have been established. The aim of this work is to evaluate the role of CACs, in addition to in-hospital patient care, in improving the bystander resuscitation rate in Germany and what obstacles exist in the implementation of resuscitation training. MATERIALS AND
methodsOnline survey by the working group cardiopulmonary resuscitation (AG42) of the German Society of Cardiology (DGK) and the German Resuscitation Council (GRC)
resultsOf the 74 participating clinics (78.4% certified as CAC), 23 (31.1%) conduct lay resuscitation training. These mainly take place within the framework of action days for resuscitation (82.6%) or in schools (39.1%). Permanent cooperation with at least one school existed in 52.2%. Basic life support (BLS) resuscitation dummies are available in 63.5% of these clinics and an automated external defibrillator (AED) demonstration device in 43.2%. According to the interviewees, the biggest obstacles to the consistent implementation of resuscitation courses in schools include lack of qualified instructors, lack of refinancing and difficulties with regard to coordinating activities between schools and providers.
conclusionsDirect training of lay rescuers by hospitals faces several obstacles. To increase the bystander resuscitation rate, focusing on targeted training of teachers as multipliers (train-the-trainer) can be a good approach for cardiac arrest centers.
