A morphometric analysis of the circumolivary fiber bundle of the human brainstem.

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
The circumolivary fiber bundle (CFB) is considered to be an anatomical variation, which can be found on the surface of the human medulla oblongata. The macroscopical fiber bundle runs downwards from either the anterior median fissure, the pyramid, or both, around the inferior pole of the olive and turns upwards to reach the restiform body of the inferior cerebellar peduncle. Multiple fiber systems feed the constitution of the CFB (collateral corticospinal fibers, fibers connecting to the reticular formation, anterior external arcuate fibers). With this examination we provide a systematic analysis of the frequency of occurrence (6.14%), size, and laterality of the CFB. Including all three fiber bundle parts (descending part, genu, and ascending part), the left-sided sizes were increased. Likewise, the appearance of an unilateral left-sided CFB could be detected in more than 60% of our cases. Our morphometrical analysis currently covers the largest sample of investigated brainstem sides (
