Melanoma and nuclear medicine.
Review in Melanoma management, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Supported by a large body of published work, the contribution of nuclear medicine technologies to the assessment of melanoma has been increasing in recent years. Lymphoscintigraphy-assisted sentinel lymph node biopsy and PET are in continuous evolution with the aid of technological imaging advances, making it possible to fuse functional and anatomic images (e.g., with SPECT/CT, PET/CT and 3D rendering systems). The development of hybrid fluorescent-radioactive tracers that enable high-quality preoperative lymphoscintigraphy and SPECT/CT, and the optimization of modern intraoperative portable imaging technologies, such as free-hand SPECT and portable γ-cameras, are important innovations that have improved sentinel lymph node identification in complex anatomical areas, such as the pelvis and head and neck.
