Gastric torsion associated with a type IV hiatal hernia in two cats.
Article in JFMS open reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Case series summary: A 5-year-old intact female domestic shorthair and a 4-year-old spayed female domestic shorthair were presented for dyspnoea and unproductive vomiting. Thoracic radiographs were suggestive of either diaphragmatic hernia or hiatal hernia. Surgical treatment consisting of reduction and repositioning of the stomach and incisional gastropexy was performed (bilateral in the first case, one-sided in the second case). The second cat died a few hours postoperatively, whereas the other cat was still alive 7 months postoperatively. Relevance and novel information: This case series describes surgical management of type IV hiatal hernia with gastric volvulus in two cats, which is a rare condition in cats. The radiographic challenge presented by this rare presentation is discussed. These cases demonstrate that bilateral gastropexies may be considered in type IV hiatal hernia in cats; however, further research about the aetiology and optimal treatment is necessary.
