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
objectiveTo investigate the capabilities of classification models based on hierarchical fusion framework of multi-classifier using a random projection strategy for differentiation of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) from small renal angiomyolipoma (< 4 cm) without visible fat (AMLwvf).
methodsWe retrospectively collected the clinical data from 163 patients with pathologically proven small renal mass, including 118 with RCC and 45 with AMLwvf.Target region of interest (ROI) delineation was performed on an unenhanced phase (UP) CT image slice displaying the largest lesion area.The radiomics features were used to establish a hierarchical fusion method.On the projection-based level, the homogeneous classifiers were fused, and the fusion results were further fused at the classifier-based level to construct a multi-classifier fusion system based on random projection for differentiation of AMLwvf and RCC.The discriminative capability of this model was quantitatively evaluated using 5-fold cross validation and 4 evaluation indexes[specificity, sensitivity, accuracy and area under ROC curve (AUC)].We quantitatively compared this multi-classifier fusion framework against different classification models using a single classifier and several multi-classifier ensemble models.
resultsWhen the projection number was set at 10, the proposed hierarchical fusion differentiation framework achieved the best results on all the evaluation measurements.At the optimal projection number of 10, the specificity, sensitivity, average accuracy and AUC of the multi-classifier ensemble classification system for differentiation between AMLwvf and RCC were 0.853, 0.693, 0.809 and 0.870, respectively.
conclusionThe proposed model constructed based on a multi-classifier fusion system using random projection shows better performance to differentiate RCC from AMLwvf than the AMLwvf and RCC discrimination models based on a single classification algorithm and the currently available benchmark ensemble methods.
