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
Introduction: The aim of the study was to detect the relationship between routine urinary catheterization and postoperative urinary symptoms and urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women undergoing elective caesarean sections (ECSs). Material and methods: One hundred women undergoing ECSs were included in this observational study and randomized into a catheterized (C) group, including women who underwent ECS after insertion of indwelling Foley's catheter, and a non-catheterized (NC) group, including women who underwent ECS without Foley's catheter. The Foley's catheters were removed from all participants in the C group once they were freely ambulant and had recovered from the effect of the spinal anaesthesia. Participants were asked about any abnormal postoperative urinary symptoms (dysuria, frequency, urgency, and/or urinary retention), and to collect urine samples (mid-stream) once they were freely ambulant for urine cultures. Results: The postoperative dysuria, frequency, and urgency were significantly higher in the C group compared to the NC group [36% (18/50), 40% (20/50), and 34% (17/50) vs. 8% (4/50), 6% (3/50), and 6% (3/50), respectively], ( Conclusions: Routine urinary catheterizations in women undergoing ECS significantly increase the odds of postoperative dysuria, frequency, urgency, UTIs, and the postoperative antimicrobials used.
