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

Cholangiolocellular carcinoma (CoCC) is a rare type of malignant liver tumor derived from hepatic stem cells, which exist in the canals of Hering. However, the characteristics of CoCC have not been clarified. In general, CoCC is associated with a better prognosis than cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC). Here, we report a case of giant CoCC, which was difficult to distinguish from CCC and showed early recurrence and necrosis inside the tumor. A 59-year-old man was diagnosed with CCC based on preoperative imaging. The diameter of the tumor was approximately 14 cm, and he subsequently underwent extended right lobectomy of the liver. Histopathologic analysis revealed that tumor cells proliferated and replaced the surrounding normal liver cell cords in front of the tumor. Furthermore, the tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin 19 and epithelial membrane antigen. Epithelial membrane antigen staining pattern was positive on the membranous area of the lumen. Therefore, the tumor was diagnosed as CoCC. Although adjuvant chemotherapy was performed, intrahepatic recurrence occurred at 4 months after surgery. We present here the novel characteristics of CoCC that show early recurrence and necrosis within the tumor. These characteristics have not previously been reported in patients with CoCC.
