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
introductionEpisiotomy, the deliberate surgical incision on the vaginal orifice during vaginal delivery, requires prompt repairing of the incised tissue. It may be associated with bleeding, infection, dehiscence, dyspareunia, short-term pain, and prolonged hospital stay. The outcome of surgery depends on the suture material and technique to repair the episiotomy.
objectiveWe aim to subjectively assess perineal pain and maternal morbidity following episiotomy repair with Truglyde Fast MATERIALS AND
methodsThis multicentric, prospective, randomized (1:1), two-arm, parallel-group, single-blind study was started in August 2020 and completed in March 2021. Ninety-nine primiparous or multiparous eligible women requiring episiotomy were recruited to Truglyde Fast
resultsAt all visits, a non-significant change in perineal pain was noted between Truglyde Fast
