Chylous Ascites and Lymphoceles: Evaluation and Interventions.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Kinmonth introduced lymphangiography in 1955 and it became an important tool in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant disease. The technique, based on bipedal approach, was difficult and time-consuming which limited its use in clinical practice. Cope is the father of percutaneous lymphatic interventions and he was the first person to access and intervene on the lymphatic system. After his initial work published on 1999, there has been an expansion of the lymphatic embolization techniques, particularly since the development of intranodal lymphangiography and advance lymphatic imaging. This article is focused on the evaluation and management of postoperative chylous ascites and lymphoceles. Their incidence is growing due to longer survival of cancer patients and more radical surgical approaches, leading to an increased morbidity and mortality in this patient population. Minimally invasive percutaneous lymphatic embolization is becoming a first-line therapy in patients with postoperative lymphatic leakage.
