Suspected Regional Lymph Node Metastasis in Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis: A Case Report.
Article in Iranian journal of parasitology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
There is no direct evidence to support the existence of regional lymph node metastatic routes in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis, and only a few literature have been reported. There was a case of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis suspected of metastasis of regional lymph node in Clinical Center for Hydatidosis, Qinghai Province, China. The patient was a 24-yr-old male from pastoral area of Seda County, Sichuan Province, China in 2018. He was admitted to the hospital for physical examination and had no special discomfort. Preoperative examination showed liver occupancy and regional lymph node enlargement in the space between liver and stomach. Hepatectomy and lymph node resections were performed. Postoperative pathological results showed that both primary and metastatic lesion were of alveolar echinococcosis. Recovery of patient was good without complications and recurrence. In this case, metastasis was considered because the liver lesion was not directly connected to the lymph node. However, the case was still suspected due to the lack of pathological examination of other lymph nodes in the lymphatic return pathway. Regional lymph node metastasis may be one of the metastatic ways of alveolar echinococcosis.
