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
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the correlation between the internal jugular vein/common carotid artery (IJV/CCA) cross-sectional area (CSA) ratio and the inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter as non-invasive techniques for the assessment of intravascular volume.
methodsThe study samples included 35 adult patients of both sexes (age range: 20 - 60 years) according to the criteria of the American Society of Anaesthesiology (ASA) physical status II - III, who were admitted to the surgical intensive care unit (SICU) after major surgeries for the assessment of intravascular volume status.
resultsThere was a positive correlation between the IJV/CCA CSA ratio and the IVC maximum and minimum diameter before and after fluid infusion (r = 0.923, P < 0.001 and r = 0.390, P = 0.021, respectively) and between the IJV/CCA CSA ratio at inspiration and the IVC minimum diameter before and after fluid infusion (r = 0.605, P < 0.001 and r = 0.496, P < 0.001, respectively). The sensitivity and specificity analysis of the IJV/CCA CSA during inspiration after fluid correction to predict a central venous pressure (CVP) of 8 - 12 cmH
conclusionsThe assessment of the IJV/CCA CSA ratio using bedside ultrasound could be a non-invasive tool for the evaluation of intravascular volume status in spontaneously breathing adult patients after major surgeries.
