Clinical pathology aspect on diagnosis cholelithiasis in β-Thalassemia patient: A case report.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Background: Thalassemia is categorized based on the abnormal globin chain and is divided into primary, intermediate, and minor subtypes based on the chain abnormality, respectively. Case presentation: An Indonesian adolescent, 18 years old, complained of abdominal pain for 1-day. Medical history patient showed thalassemia for 13 years, routine control and received transfusions. Physical examination: Anemic conjunctiva (+/+), epigastric tenderness (+). Laboratory tests: Hb of 4.2 g/dL, MCV of 59.8 fL, and MCH of 19.6 pg. Peripheral blood smears showed microcytic hypochromic, target cells, and teardrop cells. Increased albumin: creatinine ratio ≥300 mg/gr. Hb Electrophoresis showed increased HbF and HbA2 fractions. Abdominal Ultrasound showed cholelithiasis. The patient performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy and was successful. Discussion: Cholelithiasis is often found in thalassemia intermedia complications. Regular ultrasound examination in β-Thalassemia is used to detect cholelithiasis. Conclusion: Clinical pathology analysis supports the diagnosis of cholelithiasis in the β-Thalassemia patient.
