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
backgroundJuxta-papillary duodenal diverticula (JPDD) are common but are usually asymptomatic, and they are often diagnosed by coincidence.
objectiveTo analyse the anatomy and classification of JPDD and its relationship with biliary and pancreatic disorders, and to explore the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) in patients with JPDD.
methodsThe imaging data of patients with JPDD, which was obtained via abdominal computed tomography examination and confirmed via gastroscopy and/or upper gastrointestinal barium enema, in our hospital from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2020 were retrospectively analysed. All patients were scanned using MSCT, and the imaging findings, classification and grading were analysed.
resultsA total of 119 duodenal diverticula were detected in 96 patients, including 73 single diverticula and 23 multiple diverticula. The imaging findings were mainly cystic lesions of the inner wall of the duodenum protruding to the outside of the cavity. The thin layer showed a narrow neck connected with the duodenal cavity, and the shape and size of the diverticula were different: 67 central-type cases and 29 peripheral-type cases. There were 50 cases of type I, 33 cases of type II, 19 cases of type III and six cases of type IV. Furthermore, there were seven small, 87 medium and 14 large diverticula. The differences in the location and size of the JPDD in MSCT grading were statistically significant (P< 0.05).
conclusionThe MSCT method has an important diagnostic value for the classification of JPDD, and MSCT images are helpful in the clinical evaluation of patients with JPDD and the selection of treatment options.
