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
Postoperative surgical site infection in the lumbar spine is one of the serious complications that sometimes results in death. Herein, we describe a case in which a patient was found to have coagulopathy due to vitamin K deficiency when he was transferred to a hospital for treatment for a postoperative infection of the lumbar spine. The coagulation disorder was caused by antimicrobial agents administered to the patient, who was suffering from hyponutrition. The patient was a 70-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus. He was diagnosed with lumbar spinal canal stenosis and underwent posterior decompression of the L2-L5 and S1 laminae at a previous hospital five months before transfer to our hospital. Four months before transfer, purulent discharge was observed from the wound, and methicillin-susceptible
