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

Hydatid cyst is commonly involve the liver and lung, but involvement of the kidney is very rare. We present a case of a young female presented to our institute with right abdominal mass, diagnosed as query liver hydated cyst with right renal simple cyst. Unfortunately, during deroofing of the simple renal cyst, there was a spillage inside the abdomen, hydated cyst was suspected and underwent removal of liver and kidney cysts. We are reporting this case due to its rarity and to highlight the importance of detailed history and further investigations in such cases presenting with simple renal cyst.
