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
Introduction: Recognizing and managing high-acuity, low-frequency pediatric conditions such as near-fatal bronchospasm with respiratory failure and uncompensated septic shock are essential skills for trainees. These emergencies require timely clinical judgment and familiarity with medications, respiratory support, and resuscitation strategies. Methods: We implemented a high-fidelity, interprofessional simulation for pediatric residents focused on management of near-fatal bronchospasm complicated by septic shock. The simulation was delivered as 4 standalone sessions over 2 months. The scenario features a 2-year-old child presenting in respiratory distress due to pneumonia, who progresses to respiratory failure requiring BiPAP. He subsequently develops uncompensated septic shock necessitating fluid resuscitation and vasopressor support. Simulation materials included a structured prebrief, PEARLS-guided debrief, and a retrospective post-then-presimulation confidence survey. Results: Among 90 pediatric residents (32 PGY 1, 34 PGY 2, and 24 PGY 3/4), confidence scores significantly improved across all 3 objectives (each Discussion: Following a high-fidelity simulation focused on management of near-fatal bronchospasm, respiratory failure, and uncompensated septic shock, pediatric residents reported increased confidence across all training levels in achieving the educational objectives. These outcomes align with Kirkpatrick Level 2 learning, supporting simulation as a valuable tool to enhance clinical confidence in recognizing and treating rare but life-threatening scenarios without patient risk.
