A Case Series of Isolated Primary Hydatid Cyst of the Spleen.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hydatid disease is endemic mainly in Asia and other sheep-raising areas. In India, hydatid disease has been a very common disease because of its close association with livestock rearing. Hydatid disease is a parasitic infestation caused by Echinococcus granulosus. The usual location of infestation is in the liver sinusoids, lungs, and spleen. Hydatid disease in humans is rare, and a hydatid cyst of the spleen without involving the liver is very rare. The rarity of splenic hydatid disease may pose a diagnostic challenge for clinicians, especially in non-endemic areas. The diagnosis of hydatid disease is based on the epidemiological background of patients, clinical grounds, or noninvasive screening procedures. With this background, we aimed to study the presenting symptomatology and various clinical manifestations of isolated spleen hydatid disease and analyze the morbidity and mortality of hydatid disease. Different surgical modalities and their complications were studied. Three patients operated on for splenic hydatid at our institute were studied retrospectively.
