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

Caroli's syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder of the biliary tree characterized by intrahepatic bile duct dilation and hepatic fibrosis. Very few cases have been encountered in routine day-to-day practice. The patients usually present with features of cholangitis such as pain abdomen and jaundice. They may also present with features of chronic liver disease and portal hypertension. Very rarely, they may develop cholangiocarcinoma and present with jaundice, weight loss, and abdominal mass or ascites. Here, we report one such case of a young female who presented to us with features of cholangitis with sepsis and encephalopathy, which was finally diagnosed as Caroli's syndrome. The aim of presenting this case is to learn that even patients with common symptoms of pain abdomen and jaundice may be harboring some rare congenital disease like Caroli's syndrome, as in our case.
