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

Adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) is a rare histological type of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, which includes both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The clinical features, physical examination, routine laboratory tests, and imaging examinations of patients with ASC are nonspecific. ASC is easily misdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma, and patients with ASC always have a poor prognosis. This study reports a patient with ASC who was diagnosed based on pathological results, underwent surgical resection, and received postoperative chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) combined with immunotherapy (sintilimab). During the 1-year follow-up, the patient was in good condition, and no signs of cancer recurrence were noted. This case highlights that surgical resection and chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy may be feasible for patients with ASC.
