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
Urine discoloration is a frequent clinical observation that often indicates underlying pathological or pharmacological conditions. Pink urine syndrome (PUS) is a rare phenomenon characterized by the sudden appearance of pink-colored urine, typically attributed to the excretion and crystallization of propofol metabolites. Factors such as obesity, dehydration, and critical illness may exacerbate this condition. Although rare, PUS should be considered in critically ill patients receiving propofol sedation in the intensive care setting. This case report describes the occurrence of PUS in a 29-year-old male with a body mass index of 27.31 kg/m
