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

Background: Hepatic involvement is a common extranodal manifestation of common and some rare hematologic malignancies. Although the imaging features of more common hepatic diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma, metastases, and infection may overlap with those of hepatic hematologic malignancies, combining the imaging features with clinical manifestations and laboratory findings can facilitate correct diagnosis. Imaging has an important role in the diagnosis of hepatic focal lesions. Case presentation: A case presented with isolated multiple hepatic focal lesions without nodal or spleen enlargement diagnosed only by immunohistochemical study and turned out to be primary hepatic lymphoma (PHL). PHL is rare with roughly 100 described cases and accounts for less than 1% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Osseous involvement adds more challenge to the diagnosis. Conclusion: Hepatologists must be aware of PHL as it may be confused with more common hepatic diseases, mainly multifocal HCC and/or hepatic metastasis.
