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
Ingestion of foreign bodies (IFB) and ingestion of caustic agents are frequent non-hemorrhagic causes of endoscopic urgencies, with the potential for severe complications. This study aimed to evaluate the predicting factors of the clinical outcomes of patients hospitalized as a result of IFB or ingestion of caustics (IC). This was a retrospective single-center study of patients admitted for IFB or IC between 2000 and 2019 at a tertiary center. Demographic and clinical data, as well as preliminary exams, were evaluated. Also, variables of the clinical outcomes, including the length of stay (LS) and other inpatient complications, were assessed. Sixty-six patients were included (44 IFB and 22 IC). The median LS was 7 days, with no differences between the groups (
