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
Introduction and importance: Splenic hydatid disease is a rare manifestation of Case presentation: A 40-year-old female presented with several months of left upper quadrant pain radiating to the shoulder, recently associated with intermittent fever and nausea. She lived in an endemic rural area with possible exposure to livestock and dogs. Laboratory investigations revealed elevated C-reactive protein and positive Clinical discussion: Despite the large size of the cyst and dense adhesions, a laparoscopic spleen-preserving approach was selected to maintain splenic function and minimize morbidity. Meticulous use of scolicidal agents and controlled aspiration prevented spillage and recurrence. Conclusion: This case highlights that laparoscopic spleen-preserving surgery is feasible and safe for large primary splenic hydatid cysts in experienced hands, even in technically challenging scenarios.
