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
purpose of the studyThe aim of this study was to show the clinical results of postoperative evaluation of cases of imperforate hymen that presented at our center during a 21-year period.
methodsA Foley's catheter was inserted in 74 patients of imperforate hymen who reported to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Meram Faculty of Medicine, Necmettin Erbakan University, between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 2016 with history of pelvic pain. In each case, the hymen was opened via a circular incision from the central of the distended. A Foley's catheter was inserted, and estrogen cream was prescribed for application on the hymenal structure for 14 days. The catheter was removed after 14 days.
resultsThe mean age of the patients at the time of this study was 28.3 ± 2.6 years, and the mean age at diagnosis was 13.2 ± 2.5 years. Twenty-nine (96.6%) patients had experienced vaginal bleeding during their first sexual intercourse experience, and one patient (3.4%) had not. Fourteen out of the 30 married women had become pregnant, of whom nine had delivered vaginally and five had delivered via a cesarean section. After undergoing renal ultrasound, none of the patients had any apparent anomalies. Only one patient had a uterine anomaly, which was a bicornuate uterus.
conclusionA circular incision with insertion of Foley's catheter prevents many social problems by preserving the hymen's architecture and allowing vaginal bleeding to occur during the first sexual intercourse experience.
