Laparoscopic liver lobectomy in a cat.
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 summary: A 7-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat was presented for evaluation of a large intra-abdominal mass. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed a pedunculated hepatic mass measuring 15 × 9.5 × 6.5 cm arising from the papillary process of the caudate lobe, without evidence of metastasis. A three-port laparoscopic liver lobectomy was performed. The mass, attached by a torsed pedicle, was excised using a bipolar advanced energy vessel sealing device (ENSEAL; Ethicon). Histopathology confirmed a primary hepatic fibrosarcoma with complete resection. The cat recovered uneventfully, was discharged the following day and received five cycles of adjuvant doxorubicin (Adriamycin; Pfizer), maintaining an excellent quality of life and stable disease for at least 3 years. Relevance and novel information: This is the first report of laparoscopic liver lobectomy in a cat with a large torsed hepatic mass. The case demonstrates that minimally invasive liver lobectomy can be successfully performed in feline patients, even in challenging cases involving substantial or torsed lobes.
