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
Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and presents with respiratory symptoms. Overall, 5.7% of COVID-19 patients with severe respiratory status have been reported to develop acute cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs), and 41.3% of COVID-19 cases were considered nosocomial infections. Therefore, Protected Code Stroke, which is a guideline for acute stroke management that takes into account the safety of healthcare workers, has been developed. We created an operational manual for COVID-19 in the endovascular treatment center of our hospital and report our experience treating acute stroke in a COVID-19 patient. Case Presentation: A 67-year-old man presented with a 5-day history of fever. Chest CT showed ground glass opacity (GGO) on admission, and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for COVID-19 was positive. Dysarthria, right-sided hemiparesis, and aphasia were discovered on the morning of the third day after hospitalization. MRI showed an acute ischemic stroke at the left corona radiata and occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery (MCA). Progression of right-sided hemiparesis and exacerbation of respiratory status developed after the MRI. Tracheal intubation was performed, and the patient was treated with intravenous alteplase and mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Recanalization of blood flow was not obtained, and the neurological deficits remained. Conclusion: MT was performed for large-vessel occlusion (LVO) in a COVID-19 patient during the COVID-19 pandemic. Safety for healthcare workers and appropriate rapid treatment for acute stroke patients are both vital in the current environment.
