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
Flash floods are among the most devastating natural disasters, as climate change and human activities increase their risks. This study focused on the development of a reliable flash flood map for the city of Amman, Jordan, using the integration of geographic information systems with the hierarchical analysis method and multi-criteria decision analysis. The consistency of the weights was checked using the consistency index of 0.0547, indicating the results' reliability. Eleven main criteria for assessing flood risk have been identified, the most prominent of which are rainfall, elevation, subsidence, and land uses, which are the most influential factors in determining flood-prone areas. The authors used high-resolution data, such as LiDAR data and supervised classification, to improve the accuracy of the assessment. The results revealed that 43% of the study area is considered high to very high risk, while 29% is moderate, and 28% is low to very low.
