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
The post-ischemic no-reflow phenomenon after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is observed in more than half of subjects and is defined as the absence or marked slowing of distal coronary blood flow despite removal of the arterial occlusion. To visualize no-reflow in experimental studies, the fluorescent dye thioflavin S (ThS) is often used, which allows for the estimation of the size of microvascular obstruction by staining the endothelial lining of vessels. Based on the ability of indocyanine green (ICG) to be retained in tissues with increased vascular permeability, we proposed the possibility of using it to assess not only the severity of microvascular obstruction but also the degree of vascular permeability in the zone of myocardial infarction. The aim of our study was to investigate the possibility of using ICG to visualize no-reflow zones after ischemia-reperfusion injury of rat myocardium. Using dual ICG and ThS staining and the FLUM multispectral fluorescence organoscope, we recorded ICG and ThS fluorescence within the zone of myocardial necrosis, identifying ICG-negative zones whose size correlated with the size of the no-reflow zones detected by ThS. It is also shown that the contrast change between the no-reflow zone and nonischemic myocardium reflects the severity of blood stasis, indicating that ICG-negative zones are no-reflow zones. The described method can be an addition or alternative to the traditional method of measuring the size of no-reflow zones in the experiment.
