A morphometric analysis of the lungs of high-altitude ducks and geese.
Article in Journal of anatomy, 2020. 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
We examined the morphology of the lungs of five species of high-altitude resident ducks from Lake Titicaca in the Peruvian Andes (yellow-billed pintail [Anas georgica], cinnamon teal [Anas cyanoptera orinomus], puna teal [Anas puna], speckled teal [Anas flavirostris oxyptera], and ruddy duck [Oxyura jamaicensis ferruginea]) and compared them with those of the high-altitude migratory bar-headed goose (Anser indicus) and the low-altitude migratory barnacle goose (Branta leucopsis). We then determined the relationship between mass-specific lung volume, the volume densities of the component parts of the lung, and previously reported hypoxia-induced increases in pulmonary O
