1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Natural disasters, in particular hurricanes, are linked to hospitals' financial performance, how various parameters affect hospitals' financial metrics, and financial indicators that are extremely relevant in establishing hospitals' sustainability in any eventual emergency (Mah & Andrew, 2022; Schick et al., 2025). Most notably, hurricanes have led to the shutting down of hospitals in rural settings because rural health systems, especially hospitals, have unique issues when they face disasters (Traynor, 2020; Desai et al., 2019). Days Cash on Hand is a key financial indicator used to mark a hospital's capability to recover from a financial crunch, such as a calamity. Data were obtained from the 2023 American Hospital Association (AHA) Annual Survey. The Bonferroni multiple comparisons test reveals that government-owned hospitals keep 101.75 days' worth of cash on hand, whereas private hospitals keep 40.75 days' worth of cash on hand. This results in government hospitals holding 61 more days of cash on hand than their private counterparts.
