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

Caroli's syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by segmental cystic dilation of the intrahepatic bile ducts and congenital hepatic fibrosis. It is associated with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease. Here, we report a 63-year-old male known with polycystic kidney disease, who was admitted to our hospital with intermittent fever, accompanied by weight loss. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography suggested the presence of Caroli's syndrome, characterized by cystic dilation of the intrahepatic proximal bile ducts on both the right and left lobes of the liver. Shear wave elastography revealed the presence of mild liver fibrosis. The patient recovered with broad-spectrum antibiotics. Genetic testing found no evidence of variation in the
