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

Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is an uncommon entity characterized by papillary growth within the bile duct lumen. IPNB is regarded as a biliary counterpart of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas, which sometimes complicates with fistula formation to adjacent organs, mainly due to high-pressure related erosion from mucin-filled ducts. However, fistula formation from IPNB is quite rare. Here we report a case of IPNB complicated with hepatogastric fistula. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed disproportional dilatation of left intrahepatic duct with intraluminal soft tissue nodules and fistulous connections to gastric high body. Endoscopy revealed ulcers with two fistulous orifices at upper gastric body. The patient underwent left hepatectomy with gastric wedge resection. Histopathology examination revealed IPNB with invasive cholangiocarcinoma, directly invading to gastric wall leading to hepatogastric fistula. In summary, we have presented the clinical, imaging and pathological findings, along with a comprehensive review of relevant literature, in order to enhance the understanding of this rare condition.
