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

backgroundEndoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration or biopsy (EUS-FNA or FNB) has become a popular method for diagnosing various lesions of the gastrointestinal tract and surrounding tissue due to the accuracy and safety. To the best of our knowledge, no case report of severe infection after EUS-FNB of a solid lesion in the spleen has been described. Herein, we report a rare case of septic shock after EUS-FNB of a splenic mass. CASE SUMMARY: A 45-year-old male patient presented to the outpatient clinic due to an incidentally detected splenic mass. A definitive diagnosis could not be established based on the abdominal magnetic resonance imaging. EUS of the spleen showed a 6 cm-sized, relatively well-demarcated, heterogeneous mass, and EUS-FNB with a 22G needle was performed. Ten days after the procedure patient developed septic shock and a splenic abscess was identified. Blood culture revealed growth of

conclusionInfection of a splenic mass after EUS-FNB is a rare complication and prophylactic antibiotics might be considered.
