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
Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death worldwide and its diagnosis is an important part of forensic investigation. It is generally acknowledged that hypoxia due to airway obstruction by fluid is the primary mechanism of death in drowning. Drowned individuals are usually found dead in the water or show severe clinical signs once out of the water. However, sudden death due to drowning after a short period of recovery following immersion/submersion has rarely been reported. A case of a 40-year-old man who died suddenly due to severe pulmonary edema about 40 min after he was recovered from an episode of immersion is reported. We suspected delayed lung injury due to water aspiration as the prime cause of death. This rare type of drowning should be well recognized by a clinician or forensic pathologist.
