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

Microwave ablation (MWA) is safe and effective for patients with unresectable primary and secondary hepatic tumors, but it also has a series of complications. The present study reported on the case of a 60-year-old male patient with progression of solitary liver metastasis who underwent multiple courses and lines of chemotherapy. Hepatic artery-pulmonary artery fistula due to thermal damage may occur after MWA for hepatic tumor adjacent to the diaphragm. Symptomatic improvement was achieved by trans-arterial embolization and hepatic arteriography indicated complete occlusion of the fistula. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged three days later. This rare complication should be taken into consideration in clinical treatment.
