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
Clinical Scenario: Puberphonia (also known as mutational falsetto) occurs when an individual maintains prepubescent speaking fundamental frequency ( Clinical Question: What diagnostic and treatment procedures are employed in the course of treatment for an adolescent presenting with puberphonia? What factors influence intervention? Study Sources: Henry, a 13-year-old adolescent male, was diagnosed with puberphonia with a muscle tension component. Voice quality was characterized by roughness, strain, and elevated speaking pitch for his age and gender. Voice therapy was recommended and pursued. Audio recordings, acoustics, patient-reported outcome measures, auditory-perceptual evaluations, and laryngeal imaging findings are presented in detail. Considerations for course of treatment are discussed. Primary Results: Initially, Henry did not tolerate manual laryngeal reposturing. Thus, dysphonia and speaking Conclusions: This case study supports past work indicating that voice therapy effectively reduces Supplemental Material: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.31032382.
