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
This case report describes the finding of a spontaneous aortic haematoma in a patient receiving adjuvant folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) chemotherapy following resection of a pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The haematoma was thought to have arisen secondary to a chemotherapy-induced vasculitis affecting the aorta, as the patient had no other risk factors for de novo aortitis or aortic haematoma. There have been several previously documented cases of associations between chemotherapy agents (in particular platinum-based agents) and vasculitis. This report includes computed tomography (CT) images and a discussion of the literature of related cases. This case is a good example of rare vascular toxicities arising from chemotherapy, the impact such rare complications have upon further chemotherapy options, and how these should be discussed when consenting patients for chemotherapy due to the potentially life-threatening complications.
