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
backgroundUrinary proteomics identifies the totality of urinary proteins and can therefore help in getting an early and precise diagnosis of various pathological processes in the kidneys. In infants, non-invasive urine collection is most commonly accomplished with a urine bag or clean catch. The influence of those two collection methods on urinary proteomics was assessed in this study.
methodsThirty-two urine samples were collected in infants using urine bag and clean catch within 24 h. Nine boys and seven girls with a mean age of 4.3 ± 2.9 months were included (5 × post-pyelonephritis, 10 × non-kidney disease, 1 × chronic kidney disease (CKD)). Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was performed in data-independent acquisition (DIA) mode. Protein identification and quantification were achieved using Spectronaut.
resultsA total of 1454 urinary proteins were detected. Albumin and α-1-microglobulin were detected the most. The 18 top-abundant proteins accounted for 50% of total abundance. The number of proteins was slightly, but insignificantly higher in clean catch (957 ± 245) than in bag urine (876 ± 255). The median intensity was 1.2 × higher in the clean catch. Overall, differential detection of proteins was 29% between the collection methods; however, it diminished to 3% in the 96 top-abundant proteins. Pearson's correlation coefficient was 0.81 ± 0.11, demonstrating a high intraindividual correlation. A principal component analysis and a heat map showed clustering according to diagnoses and patients rather than to the collection method.
conclusionUrinary proteomics shows a high correlation with minor variation in low-abundant proteins between the two urine collection methods. The biological characteristics overrule this variation.
