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
According to Couinaud's definition, the cranial boundary of the caudate lobe is delineated by the three major hepatic veins. However, many branches of the caudate lobe go through the ceiling that is composed of these hepatic veins. The cranial boundary of the caudate lobe should be determined by employing the portal segmentation. We conducted a study based on the dissection of 37 colored resin liver casts to reveal the caudate branches of the liver. The paracaval portal vein branches (PCPvs) were defined as cranial portal branches from the main trunk or first-order branch of the portal vein distributed in front of the inferior vena cava, according to Kumon's classification. The PCVs were traced to reveal the cranial boundary of the caudate lobe. Results showed that in 18 cases (49%), the PCPvs reached the liver surface through the gap between the right and middle hepatic veins (type RM,
