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

En bloc ovariohysterectomy is a surgical technique that involves the removal of the ovaries and uterus as a single unit, prior to the delivery of fetuses. A 4-year-old, nondescript cat named "Butulu," weighing 2.5 kg, was presented to the Veterinary Clinic in Bishoftu, Ethiopia, with a history of dystocia during her second parity. The cat had delivered one dead kitten 19 h prior to presentation and was unable to deliver the remaining litter. Clinical signs included lethargy, depression, abdominal distension, and absence of straining. On external abdominal palpation, firm masses were detected bilaterally within the abdominal cavity. Based on the clinical history and physical examination, the condition was diagnosed as feline dystocia, attributed to partial primary uterine inertia. The patient underwent en bloc ovariohysterectomy under general anesthesia. The postoperative recovery was uneventful, and the cat exhibited complete clinical recovery 12 days after surgery.
