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
Introduction: Chronic low back pain is a frequent complaint at health care services, leading to absenteeism and high treatment costs. Photobiomodulation is a cost-effective, non-pharmacological treatment option. Objectives: To assess the cost of systemic photobiomodulation in nursing professionals with chronic low back pain. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analytical study that analyzed the absorption costing of systemic photobiomodulation in chronic low back pain and was performed in a large university hospital with 20 nursing professionals. Ten systemic photobiomodulation sessions were performed using MM Optics Results: The mean cost of photobiomodulation was R$ 25.30 ± 0.50, and the mean duration was 1,890 seconds ± 55.0. Regarding the first, fifth, and tenth sessions, labor costs were the highest (66%), followed by infrastructure (22%), supplies (9%), and the laser equipment, which presented the lowest cost (2.8%). Conclusions: Systemic photobiomodulation was shown to be a low-cost therapy when compared to other therapies. The laser equipment represented the lowest cost in the general composition.
