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

introductionLipomas arising in the parietal peritoneum are rare, and some of them cause abdominal pain due to torsion of the pedunculated peritoneum. We encountered a case of parietal peritoneal lipoma arising upper peritoneum. In this report, we describe the detail of clinical presentation and discuss its potential pathogenesis and treatment strategy. CASE PRESENTATION: 45 year-old Japanese female patient presented with long-lasting intermittent pain in the left upper abdominal region. Abdominal imaging showed a well-defined fatty mass measuring 40 mm in size, suggesting a parietal peritoneal lipoma. Laparoscopy revealed a tumor with a twisted peduncle; however, no adhesion of the surrounding tissues and ischemic changes were visible. The tumor was easily removed by dissection of the tumor pedicle.

conclusionParietal peritoneal lipoma often shows pedunculated form and it causes abdominal pain by the torsion of tumor pedicle. Therefore, this type of lipoma should be considered a more aggressive surgery.
