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 The handover system is a great communication tool physicians use to transfer and receive patients' care-related information. The introduction of structured handover tools has resulted in a dramatic reduction in hospital-acquired injuries. We hypothesize that the I-PASS handover tool will improve both written and verbal communication without compromising the handover duration. The current study aims to improve the quality of care and patient safety by evaluating the applicability of I-PASS handover in the Child Health Department at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Oman. Results A total of 20 trainees were enrolled in this study. After the implementation of I-PASS, 70% (14/20) of the respondents thought that the handover was well-structured, compared to 30% (6/20) prior to the implementation of I-PASS (P = .003). Due to I-PASS, about 80% of the participants could identify deteriorating patients and around 60% were confident in addressing emergencies. The I-PASS handover technique has raised participants' satisfaction from 80% to 95%. Before I-PASS, the mean adherence rate across all 10 variables was 28.7/50 (57.4%), compared to the post-I-PASS rate of 47/50 (94%). Conclusion The I-PASS system is a feasible and flexible clinical handover tool. This study showed that I-PASS has improved on-call handovers and patient safety.
