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
rationaleFallopian tube obstruction and diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) are main factors including female infertility. Acupuncture might be effective in the treatment of the disease. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 39-year-old woman diagnosed with fallopian tube obstruction and DOR has been unable to conceive in the past 5 years, despite of receiving various treatments and 3-time in vitro fertilization (IVF) in different countries. DIAGNOSES: Under comprehensive consideration of clinical manifestations and hysterosalpingography examinations results, the patient was diagnosed as female infertility due to fallopian tube obstruction and DOR.
interventionElectroacupuncture treatment was performed 3 times per week for about 3 months. OUTCOMES: After 2-months of electroacupuncture treatment, the patient's menstrual cycle was back to normal, and she conceived after 3-month treatment and gave birth to a healthy baby boy finally. LESSONS: Electroacupuncture might be a complementary or alternative treatment for female infertility, particularly for women with fallopian tube obstruction and DOR.
