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
Background: Post-operative subdural pneumatosis (PSP) is commonly encountered after the chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) surgery which currently lacks effective methods to avoid the condition. This study invented an active bone hole drainage system to change the venting technique with the aim of comparing post-operative efficacy and prognosis to traditional drilling and drainage. Methods: We conducted a randomized controlled trial between January 2020 and January 2021. A total of 86 patients undergoing surgery were assessed for eligibility, with 50 patients randomly assigned to the control group (received drilling and drainage) and 36 patients to the test group (received modified surgery). The 6-month follow-up was done after surgery. CSDH recurrence and post-operative hematoma re-increasement were the primary endpoints. The data from the two groups were compared and analyzed. This study was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trials Register (ChiCTR2200057158), and had ethics committee approval and patient consent. Results: The incidence of PSP in the test group (0%, 0/30)was lower than the control group (93.88%, 46/49) ( Conclusions: Compared to drilling and drainage, the modified surgery with the active bone hole drainage system significantly reduced the incidence of PSP and primary endpoints and improved the post-operative efficacy and prognosis. Clinical trial registration: Identifier: ChiCTR2200057158.
