Ultrasound-Guided Synovial Biopsy: A Review.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Ultrasound-guided synovial biopsy is a safe, well-tolerated, and effective method to collect good-quality synovial tissue from all types of joints for clinical and research purposes. Although synovial biopsy cannot be used to distinguish between types of inflammatory rheumatic disease, analysis of synovial tissue has led to remarkable advances in the understanding of the pathobiology of rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Synovitis is the hallmark of these diseases; hence, accessing the core of the pathological process, synovial tissue, provides an opportunity to gather information with potential diagnostic and prognostic utility.
