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
Myiasis is defined as the infestation of living tissue by dipterous larvae and is derived from the Greek word "Myia", which means "fly". Cases of external urogenital myiasis in the literature have been documented in women with genital malignancy, decubitus ulcers, external wounds, genital warts, and sexually transmitted diseases. We present a case of a 27-year-old unmarried, mentally subnormal lady with a history of a painful swelling in the vulva for 10 days. Local examination revealed a swelling in the left labia and an ulcer with undermined edges with live maggots inside it. The patient underwent surgical debridement and removal of maggots. Emphasis should be given to prevention of this condition to prevent re-infestation.
