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

Chylous ascites is an uncommon condition of accumulation of milky fluid rich in lymph and chylomicrons in the peritoneal cavity. Post-surgical complications following dissection near the base of the mesentery, retroperitoneum, or near the cisterna chyli, malignancies (e.g., pancreatic adenocarcinomas, lymphoma, gastric carcinoma), cirrhosis, and trauma are the prime causes of chylous ascites. Here we report a rare case of chylous ascites following clearance of isolated paraaortic nodal recurrence in a 28-year-old female with dysgerminoma of ovary. The patient developed chylous ascites on the fifth day following surgery, which was confirmed by an increased drain fluid triglyceride level. She was managed conservatively with dietary modification including a high-protein and carbohydrate but low-fat-based diet mainly containing medium-chain fatty acids. Subsequently, she recovered from chylous ascites on the sixteenth day, completed second line chemotherapy, and is now doing well.
