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

Among the extensive variety of disorders that can cause acute abdominal pain are hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs), pathological entities that otherwise are asymptomatic. Here, we describe a 33-year-old female who presented in the emergency department with acute abdominal pain and a history of liver focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) diagnosed 10 years ago. An abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed that the cause of the pain was an intrahepatic hematoma. The mass was surgically removed, and the biopsy revealed inflammatory adenomas, a subtype of HCA. Hepatic adenoma diagnosis remains challenging by clinical and imaging techniques, and usually, a biopsy is the main diagnostic tool. HCA should be differentiated from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), FNH, hepatic angioleiomyoma, and hepatic hemangioma. In our case, HCA was misdiagnosed in the past as FNH. HCA rarely may present as acute right abdomen pain, and a potential catastrophic hemorrhage or rupture must be excluded.
