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 cysts are quite common in the daily practice of radiologists and are generally described as simple cysts or as cystic lesions sparsely distributed throughout the parenchyma, often without the discrimination they merit. Simple cysts have, by definition, thin walls, one or two thin septa, and homogeneous fluid content. Such cysts include congenital epithelial cysts, biliary hamartomas, and peribiliary cysts, as well as those representing Caroli's disease or polycystic liver disease. Complex cysts have variable walls, septa, and contents. They also have various etiologies. A detailed assessment of the clinical history and imaging characteristics can assist in making the diagnosis and choosing a course of clinical management. In this review, hepatic cysts are divided, for educational purposes, into five categories: congenital, traumatic, neoplastic, inflammatory, and miscellaneous.
