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: To investigate the clinical efficacy of CO2 laser and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) in the treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Methods: A total of 150 CIN patients with high-risk HPV infection admitted to our hospital from December 2020 to June 2022 were divided into CO2 laser treatment group (CO2 group) with 63 cases and LEEP treatment group (LEEP group) with 87 cases based on treatment principles and patient preferences. The postoperative recovery time, CIN treatment effect, high-risk HPV clearance rate, treatment safety, and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. Results: The vaginal discharge time, vaginal bleeding time, and wound healing time in the CO2 group were significantly lower than those in the LEEP group (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse events in the CO2 group was 14.29%, which was significantly lower than that in the LEEP group (28.74%, P < 0.05). Conclusion: CO2 laser and LEEP surgery for the treatment of CIN combined with high-risk HPV infection both have good clinical efficacy, and CO2 laser can effectively shorten the postoperative recovery time with good safety.
