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 70-year-old man was incidentally diagnosed with a single hepatic mass lesion in his right hepatic lobe during a computed tomography scan. The lesion exhibited consistent enhancement with contrast agents on computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and hepatic arterial angiography. While a definitive diagnosis could not be made preoperatively, the lesion was surgically resected due to its slight enlargement over two months, suggesting a potential malignancy. Pathological examination revealed the lesion to be a bile duct adenoma (BDA). The BDA was characterized by dense proliferative small gland cavities containing several to dozens of cells. Immunohistochemical staining showed positive CK7 and negative p53. The patient remains alive and free of recurrence five years after hepatectomy. Although BDAs are rare benign hepatic tumors, they carry a risk of harboring or developing malignant tissue, such as cholangiocarcinoma. Therefore, BDAs or lesions suspicious of BDA should be surgically resected or closely monitored.
