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
Background: Lymphedema is a chronic, progressive clinical condition that evolves with intense fibrosis, the most advanced stage of which is stage III (lymphostatic fibrosclerosis). Aim: The aim of the present study was to show the possibility to reconstruct the dermal layers with the intensive treatment of fibrosis using the Godoy method. Case description: A 55-year-old patient with an eight-year history of edema of the lower limb of the leg had constant episodes of erysipelas, despite regular treatments. The edema progressed continually, associated with a change in the color of the skin and the formation of a crust. Intensive treatment (eight hours per day for three weeks) was proposed with the Godoy method. The ultrasound was performed and results revealed substantial improvement in the skin, with the onset of the reconstruction of the dermal layers. Conclusion: It is possible to reconstruct the layers of the skin in fibrotic conditions caused by lymphedema.
