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

Bronchogenic cysts are the most common primary cysts of the mediastinum. Although most are asymptomatic, some bronchogenic cysts cause symptoms such as chest pain and dyspnea. Here, we report a case of bronchogenic cyst that ruptured twice in a short period of time in a patient who presented with sudden back pain. The lesion was apparent on computed tomography (CT) as a mass lesion with heterogeneous and high attenuation in the posterior mediastinal region. CT-guided puncture performed for diagnostic purposes revealed the contents as bloody fluid. The patient suffered chest pain approximately 3 months after the first presentation, and re-growth and re-rupture of the mass was suspected. The lesion was surgically resected and pathologically diagnosed as a bronchogenic cyst. Spontaneous rupture is a very rare complication of bronchogenic cyst, usually into the trachea, pleural cavity, or pericardial cavity. However, there are no reports of multiple ruptures. This case highlights the importance of recognizing the atypical imaging findings of bronchogenic cyst and the rare complication of rupture.
