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

backgroundHepatocellular adenomas are rare tumors that can occur in patients with glycogen storage disease type I. CASE SUMMARY: We herein report two cases of histologically proven hepatocellular adenomas in patients with glycogen storage disease type I. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed after bolus injection of gadoxetate disodium, a liver-specific gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent. In the present cases, some of the hepatocellular adenomas showed unexpectedly a "bull's eye" appearance on T2-weighted and post-contrast images, which was not previously described as imaging findings of hepatocellular adenomas in glycogen storage disease. A bull's eye appearance on T2-weighted images can be encountered in both benign (

conclusionWe present two cases of hepatocellular adenomas in patients with glycogen storage disease type 1, in which gadoxetate disodium-MRI showed atypical imaging findings for hepatocellular adenomas. At present there is no systematic study evaluating MRI findings of hepatocellular adenomas in patients with glycogen storage disease, further studies are needed to specifically investigate this issue.
