Portosystemic shunt syndrome and endovascular management of hepatic encephalopathy.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers.
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 term "portosystemic shunt syndrome" was coined by Kumamoto et al referring to reduction of the hepatic reserve (reflected by progression of the Child-Pugh score) over 5 years compared with portal hypertensive cirrhotics without gastrorenal shunts or with prior history of obliterated gastrorenal shunts. Saad et al elaborated on this term further by describing a complete syndrome with clinical findings (including worsening liver failure and hepatic encephalopathy [HE]) and imaging findings (including hepatic atrophy, portal vein thrombosis, and paucity of intrahepatic portal vein radicles). This article discusses the syndrome in detail. In addition, the article describes the types of HE and the endovascular management of shunt-related HE.
