Liver abscess caused by Cutibacterium namnetense after transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A 72-year-old man underwent transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) located on the S6 segment. He had a history of anti-viral therapy for hepatitis C virus and was being treated for diabetes mellitus with inadequate control. On day 28 after TACE, he visited our hospital again, with complaints of fever and abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant. Blood examination showed elevated levels of white blood cells and C-reactive protein. Computed tomography showed a poorly marginated, low-density lesion measuring 9.5 × 8.0 × 4.0 cm, forming multiple small gas bubbles, located superiorly, and in contact with HCC treated by TACE. Ultrasound-guided puncture revealed whiffy and muddy pus. Gram staining of the pus showed the presence of numerous gram-positive rods, which were identified as Cutibacterium namnetense. He underwent percutaneous trans-hepatic abscess drainage and received antibiotics treatment. The abscess was successfully treated, and he was discharged on day 19. The incidence of liver abscess after TACE is rare, and intestinal microbiota have been reported to be the common pathogens. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of liver abscess caused by Cutibacterium namnetense.
