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
Salivary calculus is the most common cause for obstructive sialadenitis of submandibular gland. Foreign body causing obstructive sialadenitis is rare due to the anatomical and physiological factors preventing it from migrating into the duct. Our case report aims to highlight an unusual presentation of foreign body in the submandibular duct with the background of calculus formation and it's missed diagnosis in the usual radiological investigations like CT. Sialendoscopic retrieval revealed finger nail as the foreign body nidus with calculus deposits at one end of the nail.
