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
introduction and importanceSitus Inversus (SI) is a rare congenital condition in which the abdominal and thoracic organs are located in a mirror image of the normal position in the sagittal plane. Although this condition does not affect normal health or longevity, its recognition is very important for treating many diseases, particularly those requiring surgical intervention. The relationship between situs inversus and cancer remain inconspicuous. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 64-year old male with Situs Iinversus Abdominalis with Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma. Radiographic modalities were very important in preoperative assessment of the patient. The patient was managed by pyloric preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. The patient received adjuvant chemotherapy and free of recurrence for one year after operation.
conclusionSurgeons must recognize the complexity of operative intervention with respect to aberrant anatomy. The occurrence of Situs Inversus in a patient with pancreatic cancer must not deter the surgeon from sound oncologic principles of pancreatic surgery. Referral to these cases to tertiary level center is of utmost importance.
