Neoplastic polyps in gallbladder: a retrospective study to determine risk factors and treatment strategy for gallbladder polyps.

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.
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
backgroundPreoperative differentiation of malignant and premalignant gallbladder polyps (GBPs) from benign lesions is a key imperative to guide treatment decision-making. We aimed to characterize the various types of GBPs and sought to identify the risk factors for neoplastic polyps. Our findings may help optimize treatment strategy.
methodsRetrospective analysis of 686 patients with post-cholecystectomy pathologically-proven GBPs between January 2003 and December 2016. The patients were classified into non-neoplastic polyp group, benign neoplastic polyp group, and adenoma canceration group. Clinical features, ultrasound findings, and results of laboratory investigations and histopathological examination were reviewed and compared between the groups.
resultsOut of 686 patients, 542 (79.0%) had non-neoplastic polyps, 134 (19.5%) had neoplastic polyps, and 10 (1.5%) had adenoma canceration. The mean age was 46.06±12.12 years; 383 (55.8%) patients were female. The median (25
conclusionsPolyp size >1.15 cm, intralesional blood flow, and lack of cholecystitis were predictors of neoplastic polyps. Malignant transformation of adenoma may occur over a relatively short time.
