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

Gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinoma (GB-NEC) is a rare, aggressive neuroendocrine carcinoma that arises from the gallbladder. Patients with GB-NEC usually have a poor prognosis. The present study described two cases diagnosed with GB-NEC and reviewed the literature to improve knowledge of GB-NEC. The present study reported on two cases of GB-NEC in male patients aged 65 and 66 years, respectively. Both patients underwent surgical resection. Postoperative pathology confirmed that one case had mixed adeno-neuroendocrine carcinoma and the other had large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. In addition, both patients had uneventful recoveries following surgery and received cisplatin-etoposide combination chemotherapy. The present study summarized the two cases and reviewed the literature to improve understanding of GB-NEC. The results revealed that radiological findings of GB-NEC are non-specific. The present study demonstrated that surgical resection was still the most effective therapy and that postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy could markedly improve the prognosis of patients with GB-NEC.
