The Nutcracker Syndrome.
Article in Journal of radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is a rare condition caused by the compression of the left renal vein between the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. NCS may present with unexplained hematuria. This case report presents a 43-year-old healthy female without any complaints who had newly-detected hematuria in urinalysis during her annual examination. Her physical examination and the whole abdominal ultrasonography failed to explain the cause of hematuria. Further investigation with contrast-enhanced upper abdominal computed tomography revealed a NCS. In unexplained cases of asymptomatic hematuria NCS should be taken into account after excluding other preliminary diagnoses.
