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

A cholecystocutaneous fistula is a type of external biliary fistula that occurs when there is an abnormal connection between the gallbladder and skin. We report the first case of a cholecystocutaneous fistula that occurred in association with the development of lymphoma in the gallbladder. A 76-year-old woman who was under observation for follicular lymphoma with a low tumor burden presented with fatigue and abdominal pain. Imaging studies revealed cholecystitis associated with an abdominal subcutaneous abscess, and lymphoma transformation was confirmed by a lymph node biopsy. Edwardsiella tarda was cultured from both the abdominal subcutaneous abscess and percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage, demonstrating cholecystocutaneous fistula, and open cholecystectomy revealed lymphoma cell infiltration into the gallbladder. Our case showed unique complications, and its successful management was associated with aggressive lymphoma development.
