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
Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a rare condition that accounts for 5-10% of all soft-tissue sarcomas (STS). SS locates most frequently near the joints, in particular at the lower extremities, but it can also occur in other locations. We report a case of a 42-year-old male complaining of a slow-growth mass on his right thigh, reported as a femoral nerve shwannoma on the basis of the preoperative radiological investigations, which revealed to be a monophasic SS on the histological examination. During the surgical procedure, the assistance of vascular surgeons was required to reconstruct the wall of the femoral vein underlying the tumor, that was pathologically thickened, and communicated with the tumoral capsule. Although extremely rare, SS should be considered in the differential diagnosis of peripheral nerve sheath tumors, in particular if next to a large vein at the lower extremities.
