RAG time: rapid access general surgery - a shared-care protocol to convert after-hours inpatient to daytime outpatient surgery.
Article in Canadian journal of surgery. Journal canadien de chirurgie. 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
A rapid access general surgery (RAG) pilot protocol was implemented at the Vernon Jubilee Hospital in January 2021 in which surgeons seeing patients in the emergency department (ED) could access operating time set aside once per week. Appropriate patients discharged from the ED were scheduled into this time, usually with a different surgeon than the initial triaging surgeon. In this article, we discuss the outcomecs of the pilot project. This innovative reorganization of existing resources converted many patients from after-hours to scheduled outpatient daytime surgery with decreased hospital bed utilization.
