Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
During pregnancy, diagnosed cancer causes a major disturbance in the life of a pregnant woman and her family. The advanced stage of illness requiring systemic treatment inevitably leads the treating practitioner, with two lives at risk, into an ethical dilemma. The unborn child can be affected by the application of cancer medication to the mother as it is exposed to fetotoxic drugs. On the other hand, withholding therapy to allow fetal maturity may make the disease of the mother metastatic. Gall bladder carcinoma is often diagnosed as an unresectable disease (metastatic or locally advanced) due to its nonspecific symptomatology and carries the worst prognosis of any gastrointestinal or hepatobiliary neoplasm. We report a case of locally advanced gall bladder cancer (GBC) diagnosed during late pregnancy wherein the mother opted to continue the pregnancy without any intervention. A review of literature has been done to investigate the role of female hormones in a pregnancy complicating GBC with emphasis on management dilemma and the associated pitfalls.
