Surgical Preparedness Index in Orthopaedics During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has increased the vulnerability of routine surgical procedures and elective surgery preparedness all over the world, with the suspension of most elective surgeries during the pandemic and the backlog of patients currently on waiting lists, especially in publicly funded healthcare systems. On average, at the beginning of the year 2022, about 200 million patients awaited surgery all over the world. By enhancing the strength of surgical preparedness, there is a better chance of strengthening elective surgical systems against shocks such as future pandemics or climate emergencies. We explore the implications, challenges, and strategies of the concept of surgical preparedness to maintain sustainability in the global healthcare system, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with the experiences gained during the COVID-19 pandemic.
