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
objectivesThe aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of knee joint radiosynovectomy (RS) in patients suffering from juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). MATERIAL AND
methodsOne hundred RS procedures performed in 58 patients with JIA in average age 10.4 years were evaluated.
resultsAfter 6 weeks, a decrease in the number of cases with joint pain from 90.3% to 29%, with joint oedema from 100% to 74.5%, with joint exudate from 100% to 60.6%, with gait disorders from 19.4% to 3.2%, with joint mobility disorders from 51.1% to 26.6% in the RS cases was observed. A reduction of the score in the Colorado scale from 10.9 to 4.66, in the pain visual analogue scale (VAS) from 50 to 10, in the illness VAS assessed by the patient/parent from 69.9 to 32.4, in the illness VAS assessed by the physician from 68.8 to 36.9 was observed. Six months after the RS procedure, a reduction in the number of cases with joint pain from 89.5% prior to the procedure to 29.5%, with oedema from 100% to 58.3%, with exudate from 100% to 46.9%, with gait disorders from 20% to 2.1%, with joint motility disorders from 51.1% to 26.1% was achieved. The score in the Colorado scale was reduced from 10.9 to 4.04, in the pain VAS from 40 to 0, in the illness VAS assessed by the patient/parent from 69.7 to 27.9, in the illness VAS assessed by the physician from 68.8 to 32.4. In ultrasound examinations, the greatest improvement compared to the initial condition was recorded in the 6
conclusionsRadiosynovectomy is a valuable therapeutic option for local treatment in patients with JIA.
