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
aimThis study aimed to determine the indications and demographic profile of hepatic resection at Sher-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS), the performed types of hepatic resection, as well as assess the details of the operation and perioperative complications of hepatic resection.
methodsThis is a prospective, retrospective observational study. The retrospective study period was from January 2005 to August 2015 and the prospective study period was from 2015 till 2017. Prospective patients were clinically evaluated by medical history and clinical examination and also underwent various investigations. The patients were scored on Child-Pugh and American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) scores for risk stratification and prepared for surgery, which included segmentectomy to major liver resection. The retrospective data were obtained from the Medical Records Department (MRD). Statistical analysis was done on SPSS software 25.0 version (Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.).
resultsThis study included 122 patients with a male to female ratio of 1:1.59. The patients' age was between 1 and 73 years. The patients' most common complaint was right upper quadrant abdominal pain. The main established clinical diagnosis was oriental cholangiohepatitis (OCH) (36.9%) followed by carcinoma of gallbladder (CaGB) which accounted for 37 cases (30.4%). Liver metastases including solitary masses and multiple lesions were 10 cases (8.2%). Fifty-five patients underwent left lateral segmentectomy (45.1%) and mostly for OCH. Standard wedge resection was done in 30.7% of cases and for all cases of CaGB. The mean blood loss was 146.5 ml. A total of 37 patients had complications. Wound infection was the most common complication, occurring in 10 patients (8.2%).
conclusionPatients with hepatobiliary pathology, necessitating liver resection are now routinely admitted to the Department of Surgical Gastroenterology in SKIMS, Srinagar. Patients are carefully evaluated and operated with a confirmed definitive diagnosis. The overall surgical outcome does not differ from India's best centers.
