Anatomical and histological characterization of the filum terminale in dogs.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The filum terminale (FT) remains poorly characterized in the veterinary literature, limiting understanding of its role in spinal cord and nerve root pathologies such as tethered cord syndrome. This study aimed to establish baseline anatomical and histological features of the FT in neurologically normal dogs. Eight adult canine cadavers euthanized for non-neurological reasons were examined. Dissection was performed via dorsal laminectomy (
