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

This case report describes a rare complication of hepatic adenomata in a 33-year-old female. The patient initially presented with abdominal pain, and baseline imaging demonstrated several hepatic adenomas, the largest of which (approximately 8 cm) was adjacent to the inferior vena cava. Owing to the location of this adenoma, surgical/vascular intervention was deemed inappropriate. The patient was actively observed for approximately 4 years, and managed supportively during any recurrent episodes. With follow-up CT/MRI scans, the "natural history" of this particular lesion, including haemorrhage, thrombosis and infarction, was observed. However, as intervention was unsuitable, further MRI was performed in view of these complications, allowing observation of the end-stage features of the adenoma. Appearances were consistent with a rare complication of hepatic adenoma,
