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
Two unrelated queens were presented for persistent signs of estrus despite a history of ovariohysterectomy. Uterine unicornis was suspected based on historical surgical findings. Anti-Müllerian hormone testing was consistent with the presence of ovarian tissue in both queens. Based on the ultrasonographic confirmation of unilateral abnormal structures in the ovarian region and ipsilateral absence of the kidney, a laparoscopic surgical approach was performed on each queen to remove remnant ovarian tissue. Laparoscopy confirmed the absence of a kidney ipsilateral to the remnant ovarian tissue. Both cats recovered from surgery and displayed no further signs of estrus. Key clinical message: To our knowledge, these are the first reported cases of feline uterine unicornis treated with a laparoscopic surgical approach. This minimally invasive approach, preceded by a thorough diagnostic work-up, may be of benefit to future queens with uterine unicornis. In addition, anti-Müllerian hormone testing has not been well-described in the literature when used in cats with remnant ovarian tissue. These cases may be of value to clinicians discovering the absence of a uterine horn when performing an ovariohysterectomy on queens.
