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

Cystic mucinous neoplasms of urachal origin cover a wide spectrum of benign and malignant lesions arising from the remnants of the urachus. They display various degrees of tumor cell atypia and local invasion, with no reported cases of metastasis or recurrence after complete surgical resection. We present a 47-year-old man who referred to our Surgical Department due to an abdominal cystic mass incidentally found upon abdominal ultrasound. He underwent en block resection of the cystic mass along with partial bladder dome cystectomy. The histopathology of the resected specimen revealed a cystic mucinous epithelial tumor of low malignant potential with areas of intraepithelial carcinoma. The patient showed no evidence of disease recurrence or distant metastasis 6 months after resection and is scheduled for follow-up with serial MRI or CT scans and blood tumor markers over the next 5 years.
