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
Internal carotid artery (ICA) is one of the most important structures to be preserved during neck dissection. Many anomalous courses of ICA have been explained and must be kept in mind while proceeding with surgery. The variation mentioned in this article has not been described yet. This is very important for head and neck surgeons, especially while performing neck dissection or external carotid artery ligation. A 51-year-old male with no known comorbidities underwent surgery for carcinoma right buccal mucosa. As noted in preoperative imaging, intraoperatively he had a abnormal course of ICA especially with abnormal relation to the internal jugular vein (IJV). It is imperative to study the anatomy of ICA preoperatively to prevent intraoperative surprises. A careful dissection of the level II cervical region keeping in mind regarding an aberrant course of ICA especially with relation to IJV can prevent catastrophic consequences.
