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
A 6-month-old intact male English bull terrier dog was presented with chronic intermittent gastrointestinal signs followed by acute central nervous deficits. The dog was diagnosed, using computed tomography angiography, with concomitant congenital extrahepatic left gastro-azygos portosystemic shunt and extrahepatic umbilico-caval shunt; these were surgically attenuated with a complete silk suture ligation and placement of an Ameroid constrictor, respectively. The surgical outcome was successful and long-term follow-up was excellent. Key clinical message: This case report describes the features of 2 rare, concurrent congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunts in a dog and their successful surgical attenuation. This clinical presentation is rare, but advanced cross-sectional imaging allows for adequate diagnosis and strategic surgical planning.
