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

Metastatic deposits from primary ovarian malignancy can manifest as cystic masses in the liver. In endemic areas, hydatid disease is an important differential in all cases of cystic hepatic masses. We report a case of a 55-year-old lady who presented with progressive abdominal distension and was diagnosed with primary ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma. Imaging revealed concurrent lesions in the liver that were thought to be metastatic deposits but was later diagnosed as hydatid cyst based on radiologic features and serology. We report this rare case to highlight the importance of suspecting a hydatid cyst in endemic areas and its varied manifestations.
