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
In the transsylvian (TS) approach, as characterized by clipping surgery, the presurgical visualization of the superficial middle cerebral vein (SMCV) can help change the surgical approach to ensure safe microsurgery. Nevertheless, identifying preoperatively the venous structures that are involved in this approach is difficult. In this study, we investigated the venous structures that are involved in the TS approach using three-dimensional (3D) rotational venography (3D-RV) and evaluated the effectiveness of this method for presurgical simulation. Patients who underwent 3D-RV between August 2018 and June 2020 were involved in this retrospective study. The 3D-RV and partial maximum intensity projection images with a thickness of 5 mm were computationally reconstructed. The venous structures were subdivided into the following three portions according to the anatomic location: superficial, intermediate, and basal portions. In the superficial portion, predominant frontosylvian veins were observed on 31 (41%) sides, predominant temporosylvian veins on seven (9%) sides, and equivalent fronto- and temporosylvian veins on 28 (37%) sides. The veins in the intermediate (deep middle cerebral and uncal veins) and basal portions (frontobasal bridging veins) emptied into the SMCV on 57 (75%) and 34 (45%) sides, respectively. The 3D-RV images were highly representative of the venous structures observed during microsurgery. In this study, 3D-RV was utilized to capture the details of the venous structures from the superficial to the deep portions. Presurgical simulation of the venous structures that are involved in the TS approach using 3D-RV may increase the safety of microsurgical approaches.
