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
Reliable objective measures of a person's intoxication and impairment from alcohol consumption are not readily available to the public. Wearable biosensors have the potential to provide a ubiquitous on-demand tool to deliver this kind of objective assessment in real world settings. This study evaluated the feasibility of assessing ethanol intoxication in N=28 healthy participants in a police academy's intoxication lab using wrist-worn biosensors to continuously measure heart rate, skin temperature, electrodermal activity, and accelerometry. Participants consumed ad hoc standard alcoholic drinks in a controlled setting and had regular breath alcohol content assessments and underwent standard field sobriety testing. The analysis showed statistically significant changes in each physiologic parameter between the sober and intoxicated periods. An XGBoost model was applied to this data producing machine learning algorithms to identify impairment with an accuracy as high as 0.80. These results demonstrate that it is feasible to assess ethanol intoxication using wrist-worn biosensors.
