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
Acute urinary retention is uncommon in pediatric age and is usually associated with infection or obstruction of the urinary tract. We present the case of a 12-year-old girl admitted to the emergency room with acute urinary retention and lower urinary tract symptoms. Physical examination revealed abdominal distension and a blue-bulging mass occupying the vaginal introitus. Ultrasound confirmed the diagnosis of hematocolpos and revealed hydronephrosis, caused by compression. Kidney function and urinalysis were normal. A hymen incision and excision of redundant tissue were performed without complications. Hematocolpos is a condition caused by obstructive uterovaginal deformity. Imperforate hymen is responsible for most of the cases and usually manifests as primary amenorrhea and cyclic lower abdominal pain. The diagnosis of hematocolpos can be challenging. However, it is important to consider it in female adolescents without menarche presenting with acute urinary retention.
