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: Tracheostomy false passage and carotid blowouts are rare otolaryngologic emergencies that require rapid identification and multidisciplinary management. This multidisciplinary simulation curriculum was designed to improve technical and nontechnical skills of otolaryngology nursing and medical teams. Methods: Multidisciplinary teams comprising nurses, medical students, and otolaryngology residents participated in 2 simulation scenarios featuring a high-fidelity mannequin, 3D-printed anterior neck, and standard airway equipment. Both cases involved a postoperative male patient (aged 50-60 years) following complex ablation and reconstruction for head and neck cancer. Scenarios simulated a carotid blowout and tracheostomy false passage (positioning outside of tracheal lumen). Participants completed pre- and postsimulation surveys, assessing self-perceived technical and nontechnical skills. Paired Results: A total of 62 participants completed the simulation, the majority of whom were nurses (82%), along with medical students and otolaryngology residents, reflecting a multidisciplinary learner group. Mean nontechnical self-efficacy scores (assessing situational awareness, decision-making, communication/teamwork, and leadership) increased by 0.3 points on a 4-point scale postsimulation ( Discussion: Carotid blowout and tracheostomy false passage simulations offer valuable exposure and practice in managing rare otolaryngology emergencies. Team-based interprofessional simulation improves technical and nontechnical self-efficacy and was positively received by participants.
