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

Hydatid disease (HD) is a parasitic endemic zoononis in Tunisia, caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus Granulosus (EG). Adrenal glands are an uncommon and rare location for hydatid cysts, even in endemic areas, and primary adrenal cysts are exceptional. Herein, we report a rare case of 46-year-old man with primary giant adrenal hydatid cyst complicated by inferior vena cava thrombosis. The patient was successfully treated with an open adrenalectomy, with prophylactic albendazole therapy pre and postoperatively.
