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
Nitrogen gas flooding and foam flooding have been widely used for oil and gas development in fracture-vuggy carbonate reservoirs. However, flow behaviors of nitrogen and foams are not very clear owing to the complex connectivity of fractures and vuggys. In this work, four types of micro-visual fracture-vuggy models were designed and fabricated to systematically investigate the dynamic flow behaviors of nitrogen and foam in fracture-vuggy structures. Results indicate that the swept volume and oil displacement efficiency can be improved more by foam flooding than by nitrogen flooding owing to the abilities of foams on mobility adjustment, IFT reduction, and oil emulsification. The presence of vuggy can strengthen the effect of gravity differentiation during nitrogen flooding, while foam flooding can diminish the gravity differentiation effect. Besides, pressure difference at the curved oil-gas interface plays a great role in the flow characteristics of nitrogen and foam. Moreover, the EOR rate is used to evaluate the EOR potential of nitrogen foam flooding technology over nitrogen flooding technology. This work systematically reveals the dynamic flow behaviors of nitrogen and foam in various micro visual fracture-vuggy structures, which can provide theoretical support for the development of the fracture-cavity reservoir.
