Postprandial dynamics of splenic volume in healthy volunteers.
Trial report in Physiological reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Throughout the history of medicine, many functions have been attributed to the spleen and numerous researchers have focused on a postulated digestive function. Beginning in 1825, systematic animal studies showed evidence for a postprandial increase in splenic volume (SV) with a peak 30 min to five hours after food intake. Since the introduction of imaging techniques, two studies have been conducted on humans, revealing a decrease in SV 30 to 45 min postprandially. The aim of this study was to examine possible postprandial changes in SV over a period of seven hours. The ethics-approved, randomized crossover study included 10 healthy volunteers, who received a standardized meal (3,600 kJ) on one study day and fasted on the other. Sonographic measurements were obtained at six measurement points on each day. Thirty minutes after the meal, SV increased significantly by 38.2 ± 51.2 cm
