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
backgroundRecent changes in reproductive health care policy have now led to state-specific differences in abortion care access across the United States. Members of the medical community in particular have issued concerns regarding these new policies and their potential impact on graduate medical training. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to sample orthopaedic surgery residency programs to gauge their perceptions of the Dobbs decision and its impact on residency training. Materials and methods: A 25-item questionnaire was developed to assess the attitudes of orthopaedic surgery residency programs on the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision. Our survey-based study was first endorsed by and then distributed amongst members of the Collaborative Orthopaedic Education Research Group (COERG). A total of 24 representatives from 24 Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accredited orthopaedic surgery residency programs agreed to participate in the study. Results: Twenty-four of 24 program correspondents completed the survey (100%). Of the 15 programs (68.2%) who reported that their institution does not have a contingency plan in place, only five (33.3%) see a need for one. Eighteen programs (75.0%) agreed that the ACGME should have a policy protecting residents or significant others needing reproductive care. Ten (41.7%) respondents indicated that the Dobbs decision will impact how students rank residency programs; however, none (0%) believe it will impact their ability to attract a diverse applicant pool. Conclusion: Although some programs surveyed have a contingency plan in place, the majority believe the ACGME should develop a policy that addresses the reproductive needs of residents. Given the higher rate of pregnancy complications experienced by women training in orthopaedic surgery it is paramount to have policies that protect residents seeking reproductive care.
