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

The worldwide distribution of Echinococcus granulosus and its capability to persist in the human organism by causing serious medical and economical damage makes this parasite popular in terms of diagnosis and treatment implementation. Besides the liver as the primary target organ for this parasite, cases of secondary peritoneal hydatidosis are reported. Although rarely, they present with unusual abdominal symptoms with a bizarre presentation on abdominal ultrasound and Computerized Tomography scans. We present a case of a 44 years old male patient with concomitant presence of liver hydatid cysts and massive peritoneal hydatidosis treated with a combination of surgery and postoperative medications. The treatment of peritoneal hydatidosis consists of surgical removal of all the present cysts. In addition, anti-parasitic drugs are recommended to prevent a recurrence. The concomitant presence of liver hydatid cysts and peritoneal echinococcosis can appear as a result of abdominal trauma or iatrogenic spillage during abdominal surgery.
