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
Accounting for less than one percent of all GI tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors are uncommon neoplasms that arise from the intestinal cells of Cajal. They can arise anywhere along the gastrointestinal tract, but most often arise from the stomach or small bowel. Usually, they are small and present with vague symptoms such as abdominal pain and are found incidentally. They usually don't involve other structures unless they metastasize. Here, we present a case of small bowel GIST. The patient is a 72-year-old male who was seen in the clinic with symptoms of abdominal pain for 4 months along with intermittent gastrointestinal bleeding for 6 years. Imaging studies revealed a mass in the small bowel with no signs of obstruction. During surgery, a 9 cm by 9 cm small bowel mass was identified with adhesions to the appendix, omentum, and a segment of small bowel. There was also a hemoperitoneum. En bloc resection was performed with clean margins. Histopathology report showed malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumor with focal involvement of adjacent small bowel loop.
