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
Nevus flammeus is the most common benign congenital capillary malformation, often known as a port-wine stain. Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a congenital, sporadic, nonfamilial disease characterized by intracranial and ophthalmic vascular anomalies and nevus flammeus. It usually manifests as developmental delay, learning problems, paralysis, seizures, glaucoma and attention deficit, and hyperactivity disorder. A 29-year-old male patient presented with a reddish patch over the face since birth. He was found to have hemihypertrophy of face, hemiparesis of right limbs, and low intelligence quotient. On ophthalmic examination, the patient was found to have glaucoma and only perception of light in the left eye. Computed tomography brain showed atrophy of the left cerebral hemisphere and calcifications in the left frontal, parietal and occipital regions. With these findings, he was diagnosed as SWS type I. A multidisciplinary approach was followed for patient evaluation and management. This case also highlights the irreversible sequelae of this rare phacomatosis.
