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
Objective: To evaluate the effect of blindfolding the lead resuscitator during veterinary cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) simulation training sessions on frequency of completed closed-loop communication statements (CLC). Design: Ten groups of staff volunteers were recruited for a prospective, randomized, blinded, observational pilot study over a 6-month period. Additionally, two associated online questionnaires were completed by participants. Setting: Private veterinary referral hospital in the United Kingdom. Intervention: Forty volunteers were randomly allocated into ten groups of four. Each group was randomized as either control (CG) or blindfolded (BG) with the lead resuscitator always a veterinarian. The intervention involved the lead resuscitator wearing a blindfold during the third of four CPR simulation scenarios for the BG groups only. Measurements and main results: Video footage of Scenarios 2 (before) and 4 (after) the intervention was reviewed to quantify complete CLCs. Quantitative data were analyzed, and descriptive statistics calculated using GraphPadPrism (GraphPadPrism, Version9.3.1(350) forMacOSX, GraphPadSoftware, SanDiego, CA). Information from questionnaire responses was also analyzed. Statistical differences between the BGs and CGs were analyzed and there was no statistical difference in frequency of CLCs between the BGs and CGs during Scenario 2 ( Conclusion: Blindfolding the lead resuscitator in veterinary CPR training scenarios may be an effective method to increase the incidence of complete CLCs. Further studies would be required to investigate whether this finding is replicated and retained in the longer term.
