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
Fine needle aspiration (FNA) is a commonly used investigation for salivary gland lesions. The modified MSRSGC was introduced to standardise the FNA reporting of major salivary gland lesions. A frozen section is also used intraoperatively for these lesions. In this retrospective study, we included all patients who were treated at our institute between January 2012 to December 2019. The FNA reports of all the patients were reclassified based on the modified MSRSGC, and the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were calculated. We also assessed the indication for utilising the frozen section and correlated it with the preoperative FNA and the final histopathology report. A total of 325 patients satisfied the eligibility criteria and were included in this study. The sensitivity and specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of the modified MSRSGC were 64.18% and 91.94% and 92.27% and 63.11%, respectively. The frozen section (FS) was done in 131 patients, the commonest reason was for obtaining a primary diagnosis (
