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
Objective: This article studies the role of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) enterography with iodine material decomposition images in activity assessment of tuberculosis of the bowel. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four patients with suspected tuberculous bowel involvement were enrolled in this prospective study. All patients underwent DECT enterography as well as endoscopy and biopsy. Quantitative assessment of iodine overlay images was done to map the absolute and relative iodine uptake in involved segments of the bowel and lymph nodes. Comparison of the iodine uptake was made with histopathological activity grading using Spearman's correlation. The temporal change in the iodine uptake on posttreatment versus pretreatment group was recorded and tested for significance using Student's Results: Excellent correlation was found between grading of inflammatory activity on histopathology and relative bowel enhancement measured on iodine maps (Spearman's rho 0.895, Conclusion: Uptake on the iodine maps in DECT data set showed correlation with histopathology as well as posttreatment resolution, suggesting the role of DECT in disease activity assessment.
