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
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of intraperitoneal chemohyperthermia (IPCH) in the treatment of postoperative patients with advanced stage ovarian cancer, and its impacts on tumor markers and immune functions. Methods: This is a retrospective study. One hundred and twenty patients with advanced stage ovarian cancer received in Shanghai 7th People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 10, 2022 to June 10, 2023 were selected and randomly divided into control and study groups (n=60 each group). Patients in the control group were administered routine intravenous chemotherapy, the study group underwent IPCH besides routine intravenous chemotherapy based on the control group. Comparatively analyzed the clinical effects, adverse reaction occurrence rates, and variations in relevant observation targets, the tumor marker after and before the treatment. Results: Total efficacy in the study and control groups are proved to be with statistically significant differences. The occurrence of adverse reactions proved that no significant differences is seen between both groups. After the treatment, CEA, CA19-9, and CA125 levels in patients of the study group are apparently lower than those in the control group, showing statistically significant differences; expression levels of CD3 Conclusions: IPCH has the potential to effectively enhance comprehensively clinical therapeutic effects among postoperative patients with ovarian cancer, significantly improve patients' immune states, and evidently reduce expression levels of various tumor markers.
