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
backgroundMassive intraoperative bleeding resulted from vascular injury during the dissection of pulmonary vessel in minimally invasive lobectomy is a troublesome and dangerous surgical scenario. It is reported that vascular injury result in 29-45% of incidences of conversion to thoracotomy in minimally invasive pulmonary surgery. In this paper, we introduce a guiding tube created from two-way Foley catheter for robotic pulmonary resection in attempting to avoid vascular injury when passing linear stapler.
methodsFrom July 2018 to June 2019, this guiding method was adopted in patients who underwent robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy. The technical details and short-term outcomes are described in this paper.
resultsA total of 31 patients were successfully treated with robotic pulmonary resection with help of the guiding method presented in this study. The median surgical time was 180 min and the median loss of blood was 100 mL. Only one patient was converted to open thoracotomy for silicoanthracotic lymph nodes adhered in hilum of lung. The median length of hospital stay was 5 days. There was no mortality in 30 days after hospital discharge.
conclusionsThis modified Foley catheter seems to be a promising guiding method to avoid vascular injury when passing linear stapler in robotic pulmonary resection.
