Isolated greater omentum solid mass, a rare manifestation of hydatid disease; A Case Report and Review of Literature.
Article in Caspian journal of internal medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Background: Echinococcus granulosus causes hydatid disease, which is found in various countries of the world, including Iran. The liver and lungs are prevalent involved structures in hydatid disease. One of the least common sites in hydatid disease seems to be the omentum. Seven cases of mesenteric, diaphragmatic, omental, pelvic, and retroperitoneal hydatid cysts have been reported in Iran within last 20 years. The appearance of hydatid disease as a primary mass in the greater omentum without hepatic involvement is very rare and no similar case was introduced in Iran in our searches. Case Presentation: Our patient was a 33-year-old woman who underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy due to abdominal pain and an abdominal mass. During laparoscopy, there was a solid mass with a size of about 10 × 5 cm in the greater omentum that was resected. The histopathological examination of the mass showed the hydatid disease. Conclusion: The hydatid cyst can appear anywhere on the body, and no part of the body is guarded. Since these uncommon locations often cause nonspecific symptoms, the hydatid cyst should be included in the differential diagnosing of omental cysts, particularly in endemic countries like Iran.
