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
A 5-year-old boy presented with gradually progressive painful proptosis of the left eye for 5 months. He had an incidental testicular swelling for which he underwent high inguinal orchidectomy and histopathology showed atypical lymphoid cells. His vision was 6/6, N6 in the right eye, and no perception of light in the left eye. Left eye examination revealed an inferior dystopia and total ophthalmoplegia with corneal exposure changes. A computerized tomography scan showed an isodense mass molding around the globe. An incision biopsy from the subconjunctival mass showed atypical large lymphocytes on histopathology which on immunohistochemistry confirmed a diagnosis of precursor B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL). Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy were normal. The patient was started on oral steroids and high-risk acute LBL chemotherapy protocol to which he showed excellent response. Precursor B-LBL is a rare neoplasm of the pediatric and adolescent age group. A total of 22 cases involving the orbit have been reported to date of which 17 belonged to the pediatric age group. Early detection and prompt initiation of multiagent chemotherapy have shown good survival rates in these patients.
