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
Glomangiopericytoma (GPC) is a rare benign sinonasal tumor originating from Zimmerman's Pericytes surrounding capillaries and accounting for less than 0.05% of all sinonasal tumors. Glomangiopericytoma has low malignant potential (5-10%) and is mostly diagnosed in the 6th or 7th decade of age with slight female preponderance. We presented here a case series of 5 patients with sinonasal GPC. This research was conducted at a tertiary healthcare centre in North India. In our case series, all the patients were evaluated and underwent endoscopic surgical resection. All patients underwent digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and preoperative embolization. The coblation technique used for haemostasis proved very effective and time-saving. All patients exhibited cytoplasmic SMA positivity (a marker of GPC) and CD34 negativity, while one patient exhibited a high Ki-67 index (> 10%), which is a predictor of aggressive tumor behavior. None of the patients showed any recurrence in follow-up. We recommend performing complete endoscopic surgical excision to prevent recurrence. The use of DSA, preoperative embolization, and intraoperative use of the coblation technique provides a cleaner surgical field and reduced operating time.
