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

Hepatic pseudolesion may occur in contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging due to the unique haemodynamic characteristics of the liver. The concept of hepatic arterial buffer response (HABR) has become mainstream for the understanding of the mechanism of the reciprocal effect between hepatic arterial and portal venous flow. And HABR is thought to be significantly related to the occurrence of the abnormal imaging findings on arterial phase of contrast enhanced images, such as hepatic arterial-portal vein shunt and transient hepatic attenuation difference, which mimic hypervascular tumor and may cause clinical problems. Third inflow to the liver also cause hepatic pseudolesion, and some of the cases may show histopathologic change such as focal hyperplasia, focal fatty liver, and focal sparing of fatty liver, and called pseudotumor. To understand these phenomena might be valuable for interpreting the liver imaging findings.
