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
Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with simultaneous prepectoral direct to implant reconstruction and acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is increasingly offered to patients opting for prophylactic or therapeutic mastectomies. The recent introduction of prepectoral implant/ADM in the armamentarium of breast reconstruction has proven to reduce pain and animation deformity. Despite this promising method, patients with macromastia and ptotic breasts remain a challenging group to treat. More often they would require secondary corrective procedures and can experience high failure rate and unsatisfactory outcomes. The authors present their experience in utilizing a bipedicled nipple-areola complex dermal flap through Wise pattern to achieve a successful NSM with prepectoral implant/ADM (Braxon) wrap (IBW) as a single stage in patients with large ptotic breasts. Patients seeking NSM with large ptotic breasts were included in the study in the period between 2016 and 2018. They were offered a single-stage Wise pattern NSM and immediate prepectoral IBW breast reconstruction. The technique and outcomes were recorded. Sixteen reconstructions were performed in 8 women with a median age of 32 years (range, 27-50 years) and a median body mass index of 32 kg/m
