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

rationaleAngiomyolipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor that consists of adipose tissue, muscle cells and blood vessel. Renal angiomyolipomas represent almost one percent of all renal tumors. PATIENT CONCERNS: We reported a case of a 42-year-old woman complaining of mild abdominal pain with no other symptoms and no remarkable medical history. DIAGNOSIS: Clinical examination was inconclusive and revealed a large, smooth, non-tender, and immovable mass in the right abdomen. Ultrasound examination confirmed the existence of a large, homogeneous, hyperechoic tissue mass. Abdominal multi-slice computed tomography (CT) scans also confirmed the presence of a well-rounded mass in the right abdomen. The histopathology tests confirmed the diagnosis of a large retroperitoneal mass.

interventionsThe patient underwent a traditional laparotomy without complications to remove the tumor. OUTCOMES: The open surgery was the best option, and the patient's condition improved due to the following-up. LESSONS: Retroperitoneal extra-renal angiomyolipomas are extremely rare, and in this case, we document a case of retroperitoneal angiomyolipoma manifested with only mild abdominal pain in Syrian women.
