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

Hepatic angiosarcoma is a rare and aggressive liver tumor. We report a case study of an 82-year-old elderly gentleman who presented with failure to thrive and ascites. Initially suspected to be cirrhosis, biopsy results eventually concluded angiosarcoma of the liver. Our patient presented with an infiltrative form, rather than distinct masses, which led to portal hypertension and ascites. The variance in symptomatology and radiology presentations make a diagnosis of hepatic angiosarcoma challenging and require a high index of suspicion.
