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

A 130-week-old male Royal College of Surgeons rat kept as a non-treated animal in a long-term animal study presented with a mass in the hepatic portal region that adhered to a dilated common bile duct and the duodenum. Histopathologically, the solitary mass showed expansive growth with no apparent compression and continued to dilate the common bile duct, which had a hyperplastic epithelium with intestinal metaplasia. The mass mainly consisted of small to large dilated and/or tortuous ducts with abundant dense connective tissue and many inflammatory cells. The single-layer lining epithelium of the duct changed from cuboidal to columnar. Immunohistochemically, the lining cells were positive for cytokeratin 7, cytokeratin 19, and OV-6, which are bile duct markers. Based on the pathological characteristics, the rat was diagnosed as spontaneous cholangiofibrosis adjacent to a dilated common bile duct with intestinal metaplasia.
