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
To overcome the drawbacks of traditional balloon tibioplasty (BT), this study designed a complete scheme for applying 3-dimensional (3D)-printed guide plate to BT, and preliminarily verified the feasibility. The authors report a patient with tibial plateau fracture. 3D models were constructed using CT data of patient. Guided K-wires and reduction fragments were generated using the Mimics/Geomagic software. A 3D model of the quasi-platform part was subsequently generated using the outer platform surface profile. Extension arms and Kirschner pinholes were generated by sketching, wrapping, shearing, and performing Boolean and other operations. The guide plate was created using 3D printing and surgically verified. The verification results showed that the quasi-platform part was placed smoothly, fitted the physiological curvature of the articular surface, and maintained stable reduction, demonstrating the feasibility of the guide plate. Compared with traditional BT, 3D-printed guide plate-assisted BT has the theoretical advantages of accurate reduction, prevention of bone cement leakage, short operation time, and low surgical difficulty, thus providing a new method for the treatment of Schatzker type II/III tibial plateau fractures.
