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
Purpose: The objective of this paper is to present the comorbidity of anorexia nervosa (AN) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and to note the need for caution during the diagnostic process. Case description: We present a case of a 14-year old girl raised in a reconstructed family. The primary diagnosis was AN, which was changed to OCD in the course of hospitalisation. Symptoms of OCD and AN occurred in close time proximity and involved excessive focus on appearance, beautifying rituals disrupting circadian rhythm, rigid behaviours, school absence, and social isolation. In further therapy, schizotypal personality disorder was suspected. Pharmacotherapy involved SSRI drugs: sertraline followed by fluoxetine. Comment: OCD has a complex aetiology and a chronic course. However, proper management allows obtaining satisfactory control and enables the patient to function in society. The focus on anorexia in the diagnostic process can distract attention from the underlying disorders.
