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 COVID-19 pandemic has challenged the capacity of health systems in various countries. This study was designed to evaluate the response rates of hospitals in the prevention and control of COVID-19 in Hamadan province, Iran. In this cross-sectional study, all 20 hospitals in Hamadan province were monitored in February 2020. The instrument used in this study was the WHO checklist, entitled "Infection prevention and control health-care facility response for COVID-19." In each hospital, the hospital infection control officials completed the checklists under the supervision of the hospital managers and were then provided to the project manager. Data analyzed by SPSS 22 software. There were 3482 hospital beds (the average beds of each hospital was 174) in the studied hospitals. Of 15 055 patients admitted to all hospitals, 2196 (14.6%) individuals were COVID-19 patients. The total average score obtained from the checklist was 62.25. Among 7 domains studied, the lowest scores belonged to 2 domains of "infrastructure and equipment" and "patient screening and triage." The scores of domains "IPC programs" and "visitors" were significantly higher in hospitals with ICU beds than other hospitals (
