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: The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of KRAS mutation detection using plasma sample of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Databases of Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched for studies detecting KRAS mutation in paired tissue and plasma samples of patients with NSCLC. Data were extracted from each eligible study and analyzed using MetaDiSc and STATA. Results: After database searching and screening of the studies with pre-defined criteria, 43 eligible studies were identified and relevant data were extracted. After pooling the accuracy data from 3341 patients, the pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio were 71%, 94%, and 59.28, respectively. Area under curve of summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.8883. Subgroup analysis revealed that next-generation sequencing outperformed PCR-based techniques in detecting Conclusion: Compared to paired tumor tissue sample, plasma sample showed overall good performance in detecting KRAS mutation in patients with NSCLC, which could serve as good surrogate when tissue samples are not available.
