Robotic enucleation of a biliary adenofibroma.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 69-year-old man was referred to the hepatobiliary surgeons for mild enlargement of an asymptomatic cystic liver lesion found on routine screening in 2017 that measured 3.7×3.6×4.3 cm. Work-up with MRI revealed a complex multilocular cyst that had enlarged to 6.6×5.5×4.6 cm. Other work-up was unremarkable. He had a Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score of 1; therefore, a surgical excision was planned due to the possibility for malignancy. A robotic approach with enucleation of the lesion was undertaken, with plans for return for a wider resection if pathological examination revealed malignancy. The lesion was noted to be a biliary adenofibroma, an exceptionally rare lesion that is thought to be benign, but requires excision due to potential malignant degeneration. The patient was discharged home the following day and has had minimal pain in his postoperative course.
