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

We describe two cases of benign nodules caused by sinusoidal dilatation with different hemodynamic statuses. Case 1 was a 50-year-old woman with a 1-cm nodule that showed a low density in the arterial phase of computed tomography. Pathologically, there were no atypical cells with sinusoidal dilatation, and immunostaining was negative for CD34. We speculated that sinusoidal dilatation was caused by congestion due to loss of frequency of the central vein. In contrast, case 2 was a 50-year-old woman with a 1.5-cm nodule that was highly stained in the arterial phase of computed tomography. Although she had a sinusoidal dilatation similar to that in case 1, immunostaining was positive for CD34. Sinusoidal dilatation was thought to be caused by hyperperfusion of arterial blood. Moreover, CD34 may be potentially useful for the differentiation of the hemodynamic status.
