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: de Quervain's disease is one of the common causes of wrist pain. It can cause serious disability and absence from work due to impaired functioning of the wrist and hand. The aim of this study is to find out the prevalence of de Quervain's disease among patients visiting the orthopaedic outpatient department of a tertiary care centre. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted among patients visiting the orthopaedic outpatient department of a tertiary care centre after receiving ethical approval (IRC KAHS Reference: 078/079/56). This study was conducted from 1 January 2021 to 30 December 2021 from hospital medical records. A convenience sampling method was used. Patients with de Quervain's disease from 16 to 60 years were included in this study. Clinically diagnosis of de Quervain's disease was based on the tenderness of the radial styloid process, tenderness over the first extensor compartment on resisted thumb abduction or extension and positive Finkelstein test. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated. Results: Out of 9600 orthopaedic outpatients, de Quervain's disease was seen in 128 (1.33%) (2.68-4.52, 95% Confidence Interval). Conclusions: The prevalence of de Quervain's disease was similar when compared to other studies conducted in similar settings. Keywords: de Quervain's disease; surgery; tenosynovitis.
