Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a congenital anomaly characterized by a complete mirror-image transposition of the thoracic and abdominal viscera. We report on a rare case of superficial spreading gastric cancer associated with SIT in a 66-year-old woman referred to our hospital for examination of gastric cancer initially diagnosed by medical check-up. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a slightly depressed lesion in the lesser curvature side of the stomach. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed complete transposition of the abdominal viscera, confirming SIT. The patient underwent total gastrectomy with regional lymph node dissection and Roux-en-Y reconstruction. Gross examination of the surgically resected specimen showed a slightly depressed lesion measuring 12×8 cm in diameter, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of signet-ring cell carcinoma, confined to the gastric mucosal layer without lymph node metastasis. The postoperative course was favorable, and the patient has been well without evidence of recurrence for 11 years following the operation. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the second case of a superficial spreading-type gastric cancer in a patient with SIT reported in the English literature.
