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

An infectious disease named "coronavirus disease 2019" (COVID-19) currently has brought a threat to global health security and trends to be more and more severe in many countries. It also has introduced great challenges to the diagnosis and management of children with hepatoblastoma (HB). During the COVID-19 pandemic, pediatric surgeons should not only develop personalized treatment plans for HB therapy, but also emphasize the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of this virus. Children with both HB and COVID-19 are recommended to undertake multidisciplinary assessment. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 therapy may be a preferred treatment for the infected without presenting a surgical emergency. However, emergent operation may be necessary for HB children with concurrent COVID-19 who developed a life-threatening surgical emergency condition. Otherwise, for children with negative virus examination results, treatment advice should be based on the impact of the epidemic and regional economic considerations. A "wait and see" strategy is recommended for children with resectable tumors after new adjuvant chemotherapy treatment (NACT). Assessment of liver transplantation is recommended for children with HB whose tumors cannot be resected after NACT. Children with HB with pulmonary metastasis may have abnormal findings on chest imaging due to COVID-19. Besides, the detailed therapeutic regimens may vary for children with HB with or without an emergency presentation. Based on previous consensus, current research, and the experiences of our hospital, we aim to offer available management plans for the above-mentioned concerns.
