Retrospective study of characteristics and management of pyogenic liver abscess during 5 years' experience.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pyogenic liver abscess is a life-threatening disease. It is urgent to review the clinical patterns, risk factors, and management of the disease in order to improve the outcome. We retrospectively analyzed 70 cases of pyogenic liver abscess diagnosed and treated at Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital over five years, including the clinical features, management, and outcome. The average age was 63.06 ± 12.33 y. 71.4% (50/70) were males. 85.7% (60/70) patients presented with fever. The major abnormalities in laboratory were increased CRP and liver dysfunction. 77.8% (14/18) pus cultures came with positive reports, while 26.5% (9/34) blood cultures were positive.
