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
The current treatment of choice for diffuse-type pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is surgical excision. Complete synovectomy is necessary because of the local aggressiveness of the disease, with a significant recurrence rate and a minor chance of malignant transformation. The recurrence rate is even greater in those cases with extra-articular extension. Arthroscopic and endoscopic synovectomy have the advantage of avoidance of extensive soft-tissue dissection, which is associated with open synovectomy. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of combined arthroscopic and endoscopic synovectomy as treatment for diffuse PVNS of the ankle. By a combination of different arthroscopic and endoscopic approaches of the ankle region, a complete synovectomy of both intra-articular and extra-articular components of diffuse-type PVNS is feasible.
