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
Although the current medical literature is limited, hydropneumothorax was described as far back as the 5th century BC. It is characterized by the presence of air and fluid in the pleural cavity and is an infrequent finding. Causes include trauma, iatrogenesis following thoracentesis, the presence of gas-forming organisms, tuberculosis and malignancy. Diagnosis is based on clinical and radiological features. We report a case of hydropneumothorax and present radiological images showing the distinctive features of this entity. LEARNING POINTS: Hydropneumothorax is defined as the presence of air and fluid in the pleural cavity and is an infrequent finding.Clinical features may present as breathlessness and chest pains with decreased breath sounds, dullness in a straight line, shifting dullness, a succussion splash and a positive coin test on physical examination; supine radiography demonstrates a distinctive pleural line with increased density lateral in the pleural cavity.Hydropneumothorax is managed by chest tube insertion for intercostal drainage.
