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

backgroundWe experience many cases of liver metastasis from colorectal cancer, but synchronous occurrence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and liver metastasis from a rectal cancer is extremely rare. We herein report a case of ICC coinciding with a liver metastasis from a known rectal carcinoma. CASE PRESENTATION: A 68-year-old man was referred to our hospital for investigation of multiple liver tumors. Total colonoscopy and computed tomography (CT) revealed a rectal carcinoma, coinciding with liver metastasis. He was planned to receive chemotherapy following rectal resection. During chemotherapy for the rectal cancer, one of the liver tumors gradually grew after first shrinking. The following hepatectomy revealed the presence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Despite intensive chemotherapy for the ICC, he passed away 6 months after the hepatectomy.

conclusionsWe should also suspect the possibility of multiple primary cancers, even if the patient has a history of cancer that is likely to cause metastatic lesions. When simultaneous neoplasms are diagnosed, systematic treatment should be targeted to the tumor with the worst prognosis.
