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
purposeThis study aims to introduce a new handheld device application for noncontact and real-time measurements of the angle of a biopsy needle using augmented reality (AR) image tracking technology. Furthermore, this study discusses the methods used to optimize the related coordinate design for computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy procedures.
methodsAn in-house noncontact angle measurement application was developed using AR platform software. This application tracks the position and direction of a printed texture located on the handle of a biopsy needle. The needle direction was factorized into two directions: tilting or rolling. Tilting was defined following the tilting of the CT gantry so that rolling would match the angle measured in CT images. In this study, CT-guided tumor biopsies were performed using a conventional guiding method with a protractor. The true value of needle rolling was measured by CT imaging and was then compared to the rolling measurement provided by the application developed in the current study using a mobile phone.
resultsThis study enrolled 18 cases of tumor biopsy (five renal tumors, five lung tumors, four retroperitoneal tumors, one soft tissue tumor, one thyroid tumor, one mesentery tumor, and one bone tumor). The measurement accuracy was - 0.2°, which was the average difference between AR and CT, and the measurement precision was 2.0°, which was the standard deviation of the difference between AR and CT measurements. The coefficient of determination (R
conclusionThe noncontact needle measurement software using AR technology is sufficiently reliable for use in clinical settings. A real-time display of the needle angle that also shows the direction of the CT gantry is expected to enable a simple biopsy needle navigation.
