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
Background: Evacuation of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) using endoscopic, minimally invasive surgery is becoming the main technique in the surgical treatment of this devastating disease, given the overall improved outcomes reported. We report our experience with patient selection and preliminary results of the first 20 patients with ICH treated with endoscopic evacuation. Methods: A retrospective analysis of intraparenchymal and/or intraventricular hemorrhage cases, treated from 2018 to 2020 was performed. Patient characteristics, technical details, and surgical outcomes (favorable, modified Rankin scale [mRS] 0-2; unfavorable, mRS 3-5; death, and mRS 6) were analyzed and discussed. Results: Six (30.0%) cases of IVH, 10 (50.0%) of intraparenchymal hematoma (IP), and 4 (20.0%) of IP&IVH were treated using the endoscopic technique. The mean age was 50.8 [17.6] years, with a male predominance of 60.0% ( Conclusion: The endoscopic intracranial hematoma evacuation technique can achieve a high evacuation rate with shorter surgical duration and acceptable morbidity, encouraging the transition from classical craniotomy in selected patients. Sufficient knowledge and training in endoscopic techniques can be achieved through a short learning curve.
