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 explore bone shape features that are associated with patellofemoral joint (PFJ) osteoarthritic features. Thirty subjects with PFJ degeneration (six males, 53.2 ± 9.8 years) and 23 controls (12 males, 48.1 ± 10.6 years) were included. Magnetic resonance (MR) assessment was performed to provide bone segmentation, morpholgocial grading, and cartilage relaxation times. In addition, subject self-reported symptoms were reported. Logistic regressions were used to identify the shape features that were associated with the presence and worsening of PFJ morphological lesions over 3 years, and worsening of self-reported symptoms. Statistical parametric mapping was used to evaluate the associations between shape features and cartilage relaxation times at 3 years. Results indicated that subjects with PFJ degeneration exhibited a trochlea with longer lateral condyle and shallower trochlear groove (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.30; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.10, 0.86; P = .025). Subjects with worsening of PFJ degeneration exhibited a patella with equally distributed facets (adjusted OR = 3.14; 95% CI: 1.05, 9.37; P = .040) and lateral bump (adjusted OR = 0.14; 95% CI: 0.02, 0.83; P = .030). No shape features were associated with worsening of self-reported symptoms. Elevated T
