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
Pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC), which is a type of non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), is characterized by a high degree of malignancy, poor differentiation and a high incidence of pulmonary malignancy. In addition, PSC has a stronger invasive ability than other types of NSCLC and is not sensitive to radiation or chemotherapy. Furthermore, 90% of PSC cases exhibit vascular invasion; therefore, there is a risk of multiple metastases to the lung, bone, adrenal glands and brain, and consequently a poor prognosis, in the early stage. Targeted therapy and immunotherapy currently offer a new treatment direction; however, there have not been any significant advances in localized treatment in recent years. Thus, there is an urgent need for new localized treatment strategies. The present study describes the case of a 65-year-old man with recurrence of PSC after multi-line treatment with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, gamma knife and argon-helium knife treatment. In addition, the patient developed superior vena cava syndrome, and exhibited severe compression of the superior vena cava, chest discomfort, dyspnea and severe facial edema after chemotherapy, local gamma knife therapy (35 Gy, delivered through 14 2.5-Gy doses), argon-helium knife therapy and radiation therapy (28 Gy, delivered through seven 4-Gy doses). Partial remission was achieved after local implantation of iodine-125 (I
