Categorizing the Relationships between Structurally Congruent Concepts from Pairs of Terminologies for Semantic Harmonization.
Article in AMIA Joint Summits on Translational Science proceedings. AMIA Joint Summits on Translational Science, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
In this paper, we are using "structurally congruent concepts" in pairs of terminologies to suggest methods for harmonizing the terminologies. Two concepts are structurally congruent if they are children of the same more general concept and parents of the same more specific concept in two different terminologies. We show that structurally congruent concepts can be interpreted in six useful ways, e.g., as new synonyms. All structurally congruent concepts were found for six terminologies from the UMLS, each paired with SNOMED CT. In total, 1384 concept pairs were discovered. Concepts from a sample of 241 pairs were analyzed by a human expert. It was found that 59.3% indicated alternative classifications of the same general concept. This discovery allows an ontology designer to make existing, implicit knowledge explicit. Another 14.5% were newly discovered synonyms, 23.6% suggested the import of a concept into a terminology and 2.5% indicated errors in a terminology.
