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

Hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) is a rare, benign liver tumor. Discovery of this tumor is usually as an incidental finding, correlated with the use of oral contraceptives, or pregnancy. Treatment options have focused on conservative management for the straightforward, smaller lesions (<5 cm), with resection preferred for larger lesions (>5 cm) that pose a greater risk of hemorrhage or malignant progression. In recent years, a new molecular subclassification of HCA has been proposed, associated with characteristic morphological features and loss or increased expression of immunohistochemical markers. This subclassification could possibly provide considerable benefits in terms of patient stratification, and the selection of treatment options. In this review we discuss the decision-making processes and associated risk analyses that should be made based on lesion size, and subtype. The usefulness of this subclassification system in terms of the procedures instigated as part of the diagnostic work-up of a suspected HCA will be outlined, and suitable treatment schemes proposed.
