Obstructive jaundice resulted from hydatid cyst of pancreatic head.

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/
aimCompression of the common bile duct by a hydatid cyst located at the head of the pancreas is one of the quite rare causes of obstructive jaundice in childhood. CASE REPORT: We report a 9-year-old child with obstructive jaundice caused by compression of the intrapancreatic portion of the bile duct by a hydatid cyst located at the pancreatic head. Furthermore, we considered that this is a reportable case in aspect of childhood development. The patient was treated successfully by surgical procedure and albendazole chemoprophylaxis. The postoperative course was uneventful.
conclusionIn endemic areas, hydatid cysts should be considered among the differential diagnosis in cystic lesions of any organ including the pancreas.
