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

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a widespread zoonosis. For treating single echinococcal cysts during the last decades, therapeutic puncture of the cyst, aspiration, injection of a scolicide, and re-aspiration (PAIR) has been established as a minimal-invasive alternative method to surgery. A recent review on the complications of therapeutic cyst punctures has shown that dangerous complications occur much less frequently than previously assumed. A case is described where an allergic acute bronchospasm and arterial hypotension led to a life-threatening shock immediately after echinococcal cyst puncture. Fortunately, the situation could be managed by an experienced and well-equipped anesthesiology team. Life-threatening allergic phenomena after puncture of echinococcal cysts may occur less frequently than generally assumed; nevertheless, they must be taken into account, and precautions must be taken to manage serious adverse events.
