Does the spleen regenerate in rabbits after partial splenectomy?
Article in Open veterinary journal, 2026. 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
Background: The spleen plays a vital role in the regulation of immunity and blood complete splenectomy can increase vulnerability to infection, whereas partial splenectomy preserves function. However, the ability of residual tissue to regenerate remains uncertain. Aim: Hematological and histological evaluation of spleen regeneration following partial splenectomy in Algerian rabbits. Methods: Fifteen adult male rabbits were divided into three groups, with five animals in each group. Clinical evaluation, hematological analysis, and histological examination were performed to assess the extent of splenic regeneration following partial splenectomy. Results: All animals recovered uneventfully. On day 15, mild anemia and inflammatory changes were observed. By day 30, the splenic tissue showed reorganization with active lymphoid follicles, angiogenesis, and restored hematologic values. Conclusion: Partial splenectomy in rabbits allows for structural and functional regeneration within 1 month, indicating that it a safe and effective approach to preserve splenic activity.
