1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Three Shiba goats aged 1 to 7 years kept in Ibaraki prefecture in Japan were presented with chief complaint of lumbar paralysis or gait abnormalities. As cerebrospinal setariasis were suspected in all cases at the first stage, ivermectin was administered to treat, but the response was insufficient. Necropsy revealed abscess formation on the ventral side of the spine at T5 in Case 1, T5-6 in Case 2, and C7-T1 in Case 3, causing compression of the spinal cord in all three cases. In addition to cerebrospinal setariasis, vertebral abscess should be considered as a cause of paresis or gait abnormalities in goats in Japan. Computed tomography was a useful for diagnosing vertebral abscess.
