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

Adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) of the gallbladder is an incredibly rare malignancy. It is much less common than adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder and also has a much poorer prognosis. The case presented here is that of a patient diagnosed with ASC of the gallbladder after undergoing cholecystectomy for symptomatic cholelithiasis. Her disease progressed despite four cycles of chemotherapy. Her course was complicated by recurrent obstructive jaundice requiring biliary duct stent placement and percutaneous biliary drain placement over several admissions. She was discharged home with hospice service seven months after diagnosis, where she died a few weeks later. Knowledge pertaining to gallbladder ASC is limited, as prevalence is low and information is mostly derived from case reports such as this.
