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

Giant pedunculated hepatocellular adenomas are extremely rare tumors and often detected incidentally on cross-sectional imaging studies. We report the case of a 34-year-old woman who underwent cross-sectional imaging for staging evaluation of a uterine tumor. A large left subdiaphragmatic mass, without clear connection to the liver, was seen prompting diagnostic laparoscopy; during which a large pedunculated mass attached to the left lobe of the liver was found and resected. This case report highlights the challenges and pitfalls in the imaging diagnosis of pedunculated hepatocellular adenomas, such as difficulty in characterizing the mass or inability to identify the vascular attachment to the liver. Image-guided biopsy and diagnostic laparoscopy are valuable tools to establish diagnosis; most of these lesions are amenable to laparoscopic resection.
