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

The pathological features of intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN) of the bile duct include tumor cells that are rich in eosinophilic cytoplasm and arranged in papillary structures. Herein, we report a missed case of IOPN of the bile duct because of concomitant gallstones. A 70-year-old woman was hospitalized with upper abdominal discomfort. The primary diagnosis was choledocholithiasis following imaging examination. However, an unidentified mass was detected after the gallstones were removed. The mass appeared as many papillary protuberances surrounded by fish-egg-like mucosa when viewed by the choledochoscope and was confirmed as IOPN by pathological examination. The patient underwent choledochectomy and no recurrence was observed at the 6-month follow-up examination. In this report, peroral choledochoscopy demonstrated its advantages for the diagnosis of biliary diseases and acquisition of tissue specimens. Therefore, it may solve the challenge related to the lack of preoperative pathological evidence for bile duct tumors.
