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

Clonorchiasis, an important foodborne parasitic disease, is prevalent in several Asian countries. In China, the three provinces with the highest incidence are Guangdong, Guangxi, and Heilongjiang, with no reported cases in Qingdao for nearly a decade. In this study, a 29-year-old male patient was diagnosed with fatty liver due to abnormal liver function during physical examination and was admitted to the hospital multiple times for examination and treatment within 3 years, but his liver function did not improve. Eventually, clonorchis eggs were found in the stool, confirming the diagnosis of clonorchiasis. The purpose of this report is to enhance the understanding of clonorchiasis among clinicians in no-prevalence areas, to familiarize laboratory technicians with egg identification, to strengthen parasite-knowledge training, and to reduce missed and misdiagnosed cases.
