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
To limit functional surgical failure and reduce the rate of revision surgery in case of surgical ossicular chain reconstruction, a piezoelectric device was developed for assessment of ossicular chain vibrations during the middle ear surgery. The device resembled a pen and consisted of a reusable main body and a disposable sensitive head including piezoelectric polymer sensor. Almost all of components of the device were made of polymer for light weight and for acoustic impedance matching to the middle ear system. Several frequencies can be analyzed simultaneously and several measures can be taken by time. The results showed that the device can record normal and reconstructed ossicular chain vibration in response to an acoustic stimulation, with similar results to those achieved by laser Doppler vibrometer. This light, handheld and low-cost device allows fast, easy and safe assessments of normal ossicular chain mobility and ossicular chain reconstruction efficiency. Primary pre-clinical trial showed very promising performance of the device that could be used to qualitatively control ossiculoplasty during real-time surgical procedure. Clinical assessments will be done to further evaluate the real-life performance of the device.
