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 We aimed to investigate the implementation of outpatient comprehensive preoperative assessments in gynecological ambulatory surgery management in a hospital in China. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients undergoing gynecologic minimally invasive surgery who received outpatient comprehensive preoperative assessment and ambulatory surgical procedures during November 2021 to December 2021 were classified into the intervention group (n=330). Those who received routine medical procedures during the same period were classified into the control group (n=336). A retrospective analysis was conducted with the medical records of the 2 groups of patients. RESULTS The scores for information transmission and patient education and for level of mastery of preoperative health knowledge in the intervention group were higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). Patient experience was positively correlated with level of mastery of preoperative health knowledge (r=0.525; P<0.01). No statistically significant differences were identified in the incidences of surgical complications and anesthetic complications among the 2 groups (P>0.05). The number of delayed surgery cases in the intervention group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). A statistically significant difference of P<0.05 was identified in the average length of hospital stay between the 2 groups, but no statistically significant differences were identified in patient satisfaction during hospitalization between the 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The establishment of an outpatient comprehensive preoperative assessment unit for gynecological ambulatory surgery can improve patient experience and level of mastery of preoperative health knowledge.
