Acute cholangitis caused by a huge hepatic simple cyst: a case report.

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
Simple hepatic cysts are usually asymptomatic and rarely cause complications. Among the rare complications of liver cysts, intracystic hemorrhage is one of the most frequent, and can result in a rapid increase in cyst size. Some simple hepatic cysts may be large and can present with pressure effects, such as abdominal discomfort or obstructive jaundice. A 68-year-old female with a simple huge hepatic cyst was scheduled elective laparoscopic fenestration in 6 weeks. Before the operation, she developed acute cholangitis, resulting from an acute increase in cyst size due to intracystic hemorrhage. Upon open fenestration, 6.1 L of chocolate-like fluid was drained. A huge simple hepatic cyst complicated by intracystic hemorrhage resulted in an acute increase in cyst size. Distortion of the extrahepatic bile duct by the cyst obstructed the bile flow. Acute cholangitis was eventually developed.
