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
introductionCavum Septum Pellucidum (CSP) is an anomaly with varied presence among normal adults (1% − 85%). The structure is observed in various neurological conditions like epilepsy, cerebro vascular accidents (CVA), persistent headache. This study is conducted to assess its prevalence among those with neurological symptoms and its association with neurological diseases.
methodsA comparative cross-sectional study was conducted among the adults with common neurological complaints was conducted at a multi-disciplinary tertiary care hospital and Computerised Tomography (CT) scans of the brain of 911 patients were studied by consecutive sampling method. Data entry was performed and SPSS was used for statistical analysis. Analytical tests like Chi square test, Independent samples t test, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis H test were performed.
resultsThe mean age of the study participants was 44.09 ± 22.11 years, with a male predominance. The mean age was found to be higher among the CVA patients than the normal subjects and whereas it was lower in the epileptics. Participants with CSP were found to be older (mean age- 50.35 ± 19.15 years), with no association with gender. The prevalence of CSP was higher among those with neurological diseases (Epilepsy – 5.4%, vs. CVA – 13.9%, vs. Normal-3.3%, p < 0.0001).
conclusionIncreased distribution of neurological diseases in the presence of CSP and the increased prevalence of CSP in the neurological patients suggest the potential of the defect as an indicator for various neurological diseases.
