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
backgroundThe hippocampus is smaller and functionally disrupted in individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS), but the cause remains unclear. During gestational weeks 20 to 30, an inversion in the dentate gyrus and cornu ammonis occurs. This process can go awry, resulting in incomplete hippocampal inversion (IHI). In the general population, IHI is more common in the left hemisphere than the right hemisphere; however, its prevalence, severity, and functional impact in 22q11DS remain unexplored. Investigating IHI in 22q11DS could uncover morphological hippocampal abnormalities linked to neuropsychiatric and neurocognitive symptoms.
methodsUsing 3T structural magnetic resonance imaging data, the presence and severity of IHI were assessed in individuals with 22q11DS (n = 108) and healthy comparison participants (HCs) (n = 633). Total and subregional hippocampal volumes, psychopathology, and hippocampal-based memory were evaluated.
resultsIHI prevalence was significantly higher in individuals with 22q11DS compared with HCs in both the left (63% vs. 30%, p < .001) and right (29% vs. 8%, p < .001) hemispheres. IHI severity was also greater in participants with 22q11DS (p < .001) bilaterally. IHI influenced hippocampal volume differences, with left IHI primarily affecting the head (p < .01) and tail (p < .001) and right IHI affecting only the tail (p < .001). In exploratory analyses within participants with 22q11DS, left IHI presence was linked to poorer face memory (p < .05) but not to psychopathology.
conclusionsThese findings highlight a high prevalence of hippocampal morphological alterations in 22q11DS, which are associated with memory performance. Earlier developmental and longitudinal studies are needed to clarify the role of IHI in 22q11DS sequelae.
