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
introductionDigital transformation includes, among other things, the project planning and implementation of digital applications, technologies, and measures and currently represents the day-to-day business of all organizations and institutions in the healthcare sector. In this article, the current activities of digital transformation in healthcare facilities from the perspective of quality management are presented.
methodsA Germany-wide survey among 141 members of the Society for Quality Management in Healthcare (physicians in private practice, hospitals, health insurers, and other healthcare institutions) was conducted on all fields of digital technologies, existing projects, and digital technologies that are currently being implemented. Based on six thematic modules, the participants evaluated the chronological sequence and the relevance of the content for their organization.
resultsOf the survey participants, 82% stated that digital transformation influences or changes their everyday workplace. The most frequent projects include topics from process and interface management (53%) and improving patient safety (52%). The most frequent concrete projects are electronic patient files and topics that were commissioned as part of the Krankenhauszukunftsgesetz. DISCUSSION: According to the respondents, digital transformation is changing the structures and processes of healthcare facilities and requires additional competencies so that digital technologies can be implemented in a targeted and sustainable manner. A structured coordination of the competencies of all professions in a healthcare facility is required to anchor digital technologies in the everyday life of healthcare facilities.
