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
Sarcoidosis is a systemic, noncaseating granulomatous disease with an unknown etiology. The liver is one of the most frequently affected organs. This case is presented to emphasize that hepatic granulomatous foci can lead to a determination of etiology in a diagnosis of sarcoidosis. A 53-year-old-female patient with complaints of fatigue and abdominal pain was admitted to the clinic of gastroenterology. The blood levels of alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transferase were markedly increased. The autoimmune parameters were negative. A Tru-Cut biopsy (Becton, Dickinson and Co., Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) of the liver was performed based on the initial diagnoses of tuberculosis, lymphoma, and sarcoidosis. Histopathological evaluation revealed noncaseating granulomatous inflammation with Grade 3 macrovesicular steatosis. An investigation for hepatic sarcoidosis was recommended. The angiotensin-converting enzyme levels were 5 times higher than normal. Based on this result, the diagnosis was sarcoidosis with hepatic involvement. The treatment and follow-up of the patient continues.
