Minimally invasive fenestration for congenital hepatic cyst in infant.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 19-year-old woman underwent prenatal ultrasonography, which confirmed the presence of an isolated cystic mass in the upper abdominal cavity of a fetus. A female infant weighing 3085 g was delivered at 36 weeks' gestation. Ultrasonography and computed tomography examination revealed a clear unilocular cyst and occupying the right side of the abdomen. The infant's respiratory status was unstable, and she fed poorly, owing to compression by the hepatic cyst. We performed ultrasound-guided aspiration of a hepatic cyst at 15 days old, but it rapidly re-grew. Therefore, we performed laparoscopic findings and fenestration of the hepatic cyst via an umbilical arc incision and the cyst wall was excised at 43 days old. The histopathological diagnosis was mesothelial cell-derived hepatic cyst. Three years after the operation, no recurrence has been observed. Hepatic cyst fenestration by umbilical incision can be performed safely in infants and it is a cosmetically superior method.
