Article in Frontiers in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Australia's native fauna is unique through millions of years of isolated evolution resulting in a significant divergence of marsupial brain anatomy, and thus neural pathways, from eutherian mammals. This study provides a morphometric description of a mature female koala ( Methods: The brain of a naturally deceased koala was removed and fixed in 10% neutral buffered formaldehyde (pH 7.0). The MRI was acquired on a 9.4 T Bruker Biospec MR system with Paravision 7.0 software, using a 3D multigradient echo sequence, with TR/TE = 70 msec/ (8 echoes 4-32 msec), a field of view = 7.0 × 6.4 × 4.0 cm Results: The koala brain is lissencephalic and has a volume of 15720.98 mm Conclusion: This study can be used as a basis for clinical imaging of koalas and as baseline data for future research into brain development of koalas and other marsupials.
