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
Platelet-derived growth factor β (PDGFβ) has been proposed to contribute to the development of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and soluble PDGFRβ (sPDGFRβ) is considered to be an inhibitor of PDGF signaling. We aimed at determining the sPDGFRβ concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with aneurysmal SAH (aSAH) and analyzing the relationship between sPDGFRβ level and CVS. CSF was sampled from 32 patients who suffered aSAH and five normal controls. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to determine the sPDGFRβ concentrations in the CSF. Functional outcome was assessed using modified Rankin scale (mRS) at 6 months after aSAH. CVS was identified using transcranial Doppler or angio-CT or DSA. The cutoff of sPDGFRβ for CVS was defined on the ROC curve. The concentrations of sPDGFRβ following aSAH were both higher than those of normal controls on days 1-3 and 4-6, and peaked on days 7-9 post-SAH. The cutoff value of sPDGFRβ level on days 1-3 for CVS was defined as 975.38 pg/ml according to the ROC curve (AUC = 0.680, p = 0.082). In addition, CSF sPDGFRβ concentrations correlated with CVS (r = 0.416, p = 0.018), and multivariate analysis indicated that sPDGFRβ level higher than 975.38 pg/ml on days 1-3 was an independent predictor of CVS (p = 0.001, OR = 19.22, 95% CI: 3.27-113.03), but not for unfavorable outcome after aSAH in the current study. CSF sPDGFRβ level increases after aSAH and is higher in patients who developed CVS, and sPDGFRβ level higher than 975.38 pg/ml on days 1-3 is a potential predictor for CVS after SAH.
