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 Japanese Fellowship Program at the U.S. Naval Hospital Yokosuka has served as a liaison with Japanese hospitals during the transfer of acutely ill U.S. Navy patients since 1952. The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has complicated this process and prompted the creation of a new framework that involves the Public Health Center. We present two international transfer cases of patients with positive SARS-CoV-2. The creation of a framework enabled a safe and smooth transfer process of patients with a favorable outcome. This report can help guide future cases of international transfer, especially for patients who need infectious disease surveillance. To our knowledge, we describe the first report of an international transfer of patients with positive SARS-CoV-2 test using a framework.
