Persistent left superior vena cava with partial anomalous venous return in a liver transplant patient.
Article in Anaesthesia reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Insertion of central venous catheters is commonly performed on critically ill patients. Successful placement requires knowledge of vascular anatomy, but vascular anomalies may pose difficulties during insertion and confirmation of catheter position. This report describes the incidental discovery of a persistent left superior vena cava emptying into a pulmonary vein with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return to the left innominate vein and ultimately into the right superior vena cava, after placement of a left internal jugular central line in a patient presenting for liver transplant. We discuss the clinical implications of persistent left superior vena cava and the steps we took to evaluate catheter position.
