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 Internal jugular vein (IJV) cannulation is a routine procedure in operating rooms, critical care units, and perioperative settings. Ultrasound guidance has notably increased the success rates of IJV cannulation. A modified ultrasound technique known as the short-axis out-of-plane method with dynamic needle tip positioning (DNTP) allows for continuous visualization of the needle tip throughout the procedure. This study aims to compare the first-pass success rate of IJV cannulation using the DNTP and long-axis in-plane (LAIP) approaches. Methods One hundred patients between 18 and 70 years undergoing elective surgery requiring IJV cannulation were recruited. Patients were assigned randomly to the DNTP group (n = 50) or the LAIP group (n = 50). We recorded the first-pass success rate, time to achieve successful cannulation, number of skin punctures, overall success rate within five minutes, and potential complications such as pneumothorax and hematoma. Results The first pass success rate was higher in the DNTP group (48/50, 96%) as compared to the LAIP group (38/50, 76%, relative risk, 1.67; 95% confidence interval, 0.039-0.707; p = 0.008). The cannulation time was shorter in DNTP (116.98 ± 22.90 seconds) versus the LAIP group (213.04 ± 52.08 seconds; p < 0.001). No complications like pneumothorax or hematoma were noted in both groups. Conclusion We conclude that the ultrasound-guided DNTP technique for IJV cannulation, as compared with the LAIP technique, may significantly improve the first attempt cannulation, number of attempts, and cannulation time.
