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: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) positivity and the need of mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 159 patients who were diagnosed with GBS between December 2014 and April 2023 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University. Patients were categorized into two groups according to the need for MV. Variables that were significantly different between the two groups in univariate analysis were analyzed through multivariate logistic regression models. Results: The final study population included 159 patients, 28 (17.6%) of whom need MV. In univariate analysis, Medical Research council sum score (MRC) on admission ( Conclusion: HBcAb positivity increased the risk of MV in patients with GBS. Lower MRC on admission, bulbar paralysis, autonomic dysfunction, and higher NLR were the risk factors for the need for MV.
