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

Pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). In most cases, the patient presents with gastrointestinal bleeding or hemoperitoneum. Here, we present a case with a post-cholecystectomy right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA) induced by a generalized seizure. A 39-year-old male was sent to the emergency room with a generalized seizure and a loss of consciousness for approximately 5 min. Diffuse abdominal pain was complained of after consciousness returned. The surgical history of LC 13 days prior was mentioned. Abdominal computer tomography (CT) revealed a lobulated fluid accumulation in the gallbladder fossa with prominent fatty stranding and suspected biloma formation. After admission for one week, sharp abdominal pain was observed. Abdominal CT angiography revealed a right hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm. Transcatheter arterial embolization was performed with a total of seven platinum coils. In conclusion, it is important for doctors to take pseudoaneurysm into consideration in the patient who presents with seizure attack after receiving LC. Late discovery of PSA when it is ruptured can lead to fatal conditions, such as severe hemoperitoneum.
