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
backgroundNitrous oxide (N O) is an inhalational medication that has anxiolytic, amnestic, potent venodilatory and mild-to-moderate analgesic properties commonly used in the emergency department (ED) setting. N
methodsThis is a case series of two adolescent boys with Hb-SS who on 3 separate occasions presented to the ED with acute priapism that failed oral therapy (pseudoephedrine and opioids). N
resultsIn each presentation (at ages 8 and 10 years for patient 1; age 15 years for patient 2), the patient experienced complete resolution of the priapism within 4-15 min of receiving N
conclusionsPriapism is a challenging complication of SCD associated with long-term morbidity and a paucity of treatment options. Opioids are commonly used. Given the risks and inconsistent results of current recommended therapy, N
