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

Gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinomas are rare tumors with a prognosis poorer than that of other gallbladder carcinomas. These tumors are often detected late and are difficult to treat. We present the case of a 68-year-old woman with small-cell gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinoma. Abdominal sonography and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI performed at different points in time showed rapid growth. Treatment with surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy was instituted. In view of the rapid growth of these tumors, suspicious cases should at least be considered for close follow-up with appropriate imaging studies.
