Aberrant Left Colic Artery and Accessory Right Colic Artery: A Case Report and Surgical Implications.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
During a routine dissection of the abdominal region in our department of anatomy's dissection laboratory, we found two variations of the vasculature of the gastrointestinal tract within the greater peritoneal and retroperitoneal compartments: an aberrant left colic artery (LCA) and an accessory right colic artery (RCA). The aberrant LCA originates from a common trunk (CT) that arises from the superior mesenteric artery instead of the inferior mesenteric artery. The CT continues for a short distance and terminates by dividing into a middle colic artery and an accessory RCA. The aberrant LCA and accessory RCA had abnormal courses; therefore, they are vulnerable to injury during surgical procedures of the region. Hence, a thorough knowledge of vascular variations is required to avoid potential complications.
