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: For unilateral cleft lip and palate severe midfacial skeletal dysplasia, external skull fixator combined with nickel titanium memory alloy spring was used to treat canine pillar bone bearing traction. Methodology: Patients (n = 200) with unilateral cleft lip and palate and severe midfacial skeletal hypoplasia who were treated in our hospital within three years were divided into control group (treated with trans suture traction osteogenesis) while the observation group was treated with skull external fixator combined with nickel titanium memory alloy spring supporting force traction of canine bone. Results: After applying significantly different traction forces to the maxillary tissues on both sides of the patient, the patient was treated with appropriate traction correction, orthodontic treatment and moderate traction on the facial arch to effectively reduce the recurrence of the disease after surgery. Compared with the control group, the curative effect in all aspects was better and the asymmetry rate was lower. Conclusion: Canine strut bone traction method of external skull fixation combined with nickel-titanium memory alloy spring was applied for severe facial skeletal dysplasia caused by unilateral cleft lip and palate. For this purpose, reasonable and scientific treatment methods were provided for early correction and treatment of the disease.
