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

Primary retroperitoneal serous cyst adenomas (PRSCs) are extremely rare thin-walled cystic lesions whose pathogenesis is not well understood. Clinical presentation varies depending on the lesion's size and location, i.e., larger lesions compress adjacent organs, giving the impression of malignancy. Although advances in imaging techniques enable to identify various characteristics of retroperitoneal cystic lesions, there are no pathognomonic signs to confirm the diagnosis. The exact diagnosis is based on the histology after complete surgical excision. An open surgical approach is considered the traditional method of complete resection; however, laparoscopic techniques have increasingly been employed. Diagnostic aspiration is discouraged due to the potential risk of seeding if the lesion is malignant. We present the case of a 51-year-old woman who underwent complete excision of a large right retroperitoneal cyst, histologically confirmed as PRSC with a review of the background and management options of this phenomenon.
