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
As part of supportive therapy, prophylaxis with tiopronin for injection (TI) against common hepatotoxicity complications has often been used. However, methods to prevent hepatotoxicity have not been established. Therefore, our study was aimed to find out the relationship between the periods of TI prophylaxis and post-treatment hepatotoxicity, and evaluated the value of prolonging the duration of TI administration in preventing hepatotoxicity. Hepatotoxicity was detected through liver transaminases, bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, and clinical features of liver insufficiency. Multivariable logistic regressions were conducted to examine the association of the periods of TI prophylaxis and post-treatment hepatotoxicity. Between January 2022 and March 2023, a total of 452 patients with gynecological cancer were enrolled in the study, of which 93 (20.58%) participants were post-treatment hepatotoxicity positive. TI with different prevention days were no significant difference among participants with or without post-treatment hepatotoxicity in crude model (P > 0.05). The P-value, the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of participants with TI prophylaxis for 1 day for post-treatment hepatotoxicity were 0.040, 3.534 (1.061-11.765) in fully adjusted model. Past history of hepatotoxicity is a confounding variable, and there was no significant difference for post-treatment hepatotoxicity when stratified by past history of hepatotoxicity (P > 0.05). The study indicate that the periods of TI prophylaxis is not associated with post-treatment hepatotoxicity, suggesting that prolonged the periods of TI prophylaxis might be an invalid method for the prevention of post-treatment hepatotoxicity.
