Congenital Extrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Complicated by the Development of Hepatoblastoma: A Case Report and Review of Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) or congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunts (CEPS) is a rare malformation. This congenital anomaly presents with a diverse array of clinical manifestations, ranging from asymptomatic to severe complications such as cardiac failure, pronounced pulmonary hypertension, and widespread pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. CPSS increases the risk of developing benign or malignant liver tumors, including nodular regenerative hyperplasia, focal nodular hyperplasia, hepatic adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and hepatoblastoma. We report a case of a 15-month-old boy, identified with Abernethy's malformation type Ib, who presented with an abdominal mass during a follow-up. A comprehensive assessment established a diagnosis of hepatoblastoma. The patient was transferred to a specialized liver transplant center for further treatment and management. This is a review of literature highlighting the complexity of Abernethy malformation and its associated risk of liver tumors.
