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
backgroundIdiopathic basal ganglia calcification (IBGC) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by symmetrical calcification of basal ganglia and other brain region, also known as Fahr's disease. It can be sporadic or familial, and there is no definite etiology at present. With the development of neuroimaging, the number of reports of IBGC has increased in recent years. However, due to its hidden onset, diverse clinical manifestations, and low incidence, it is likely to be misdiagnosed or ignored by potential patients and their family. CASE SUMMARY: We report a case of a 61-year-old man who presented with symptoms of dysphagia and alalia. His computed tomography scan of the brain revealed bilateral symmetric calcifications of basal ganglia, cerebellum, thalamus, and periventricular area. The genetic test showed a new mutation sites of
