1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Anatomical variations may result from errors during embryologic development. Specifically, variations in gonadal vasculature can arise from atypical persistence of subcardinal -supracardinal anastomoses, which can result in duplicated gonadal veins. We present a rare case of a partially duplicated left ovarian vein bisected by the left renal artery that was discovered in a female anatomical donor during dissection of twenty human cadavers at Creighton University School of Medicine. To our understanding, the anteroposterior duplication with a bisecting renal artery has not been previously reported. Proper documentation of anatomical variations can help enhance clinician awareness, therefore mitigating procedural and clinical complications.
