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
Zuckerkandl tubercles are posteromedial projections of normal thyroid gland with relations with important neck structures. In our case, we reported "Thyroid ring", that is a ring configuration of the thyroid gland encasing the trachea and esophagus, without compression symptoms. Ring was formed by the elongated zuckerkandl tubercles, passing through the column between the esophagus and vertebral body and abutting each other at left posterolateral border of esophagus. Reporting of these relations and variations is important as it helps the operating surgeon in planning the approach to the procedure.
