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
backgroundTransnodal x‑ray lymphangiography has become increasingly important in recent years as it enables precise visualization of the anatomy, function and pathologies of the central lymphatic system. It is usually performed after ultrasound-guided puncture of a lymph node with injection of an oily contrast medium.
objectiveThe aim of this study is to present the basic principles of transnodal x‑ray lymphangiography and the interventional treatment options for central lymphatic pathologies.
resultsRegardless of the specific cause of the lymphatic pathology, transnodal lymphangiography is an effective and safe procedure which, in addition to its diagnostic value, can also have a therapeutic effect on lymphatic leakage. However, due to the employed oily contrast medium, it's purely diagnostic use in patients with lymphoedema is not advisable.
conclusionNodal lymphangiography also forms the basis for targeted interventional radiological treatments (e.g. lymph vessel embolization) of a wide range of often rare lymphatic diseases. Interventional methods are often more precise, faster and less-invasive than surgical procedures and have lower morbidity and mortality rates.
