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
Radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation are established treatment modalities for smaller (<3 cm) or isolated hepatic tumors. Transthoracic ablation of hepatic dome lesions is a well described technique. We report the use of one lung ventilation to facilitate the successful percutaneous transthoracic microwave ablation of a segment 8 hepatic dome lesion after induction of artificial pneumothorax. This involved the use of general anesthesia and insertion of a double lumen endotracheal tube to allow isolated ventilation of one lung, followed by creation of an artificial pneumothorax under computed tomography (CT) guidance. Complete ablation of the lesion was confirmed on CT liver at 1 and 7 months with no local recurrence. The combined techniques of one lung ventilation and artificial pneumothorax enabled a safe and accurate transthoracic targeting of the hepatic dome lesion.
