A canine case of multiple intrahepatic portosystemic shunts.

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
An elderly, spayed female Maltese dog (10 years 3 months, 2.2 kg) presented with hyporexia, weight loss, polydipsia, and a staggering gait. Serum biochemistry analysis revealed increased aspartate aminotransferase, alanine transaminase, ammonia (226 μg/dL), and fasting total bile acids (130 μmol/L). Contrast-enhanced CT showed multiple clusters of contrast enhancement within the hepatic parenchyma; however, discrete shunt vessels could not be clearly identified, and a definitive diagnosis could not be established based on CT alone. Intraoperative jejunal venous portography revealed numerous microvascular clusters connecting portal branches to the hepatic vein and caudal vena cava. The portal pressure was 7 mmHg. Based on these findings, multiple intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (MIPSS) were diagnosed, and medical management was selected.
