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

Malignant transformation of hepatocellular adenoma (HA) is relatively rare and has been reported to be associated with dysregulation of the β-catenin pathway. The presence of bone marrow metaplasia in HA is an uncommon histological characteristic. The current report presents the case of a 46-year-old woman with glycogen storage disease type I (von Gierke's disease) who underwent resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) arising in a HA with associated bone marrow metaplasia producing three series of hematopoietic cells. The serum level of proteins induced by des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin (DCP) gradually increased as the tumors grew; following hepatic resection, DCP levels returned to normal. Nuclear accumulation of β-catenin was shown in HCC by immunohistochemistry; however, no mutation was detected in exon 3 of β-catenin. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of HA with absolute bone marrow metaplasia producing three series of hematopoietic cells. This occurrence suggests that elevated DCP may be an indicator of malignant transformation of HA.
