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

We report a rare case of adenosquamous carcinoma of the gallbladder. The patient presented with unexplained weight loss and a palpable mass below the right costal margin. A computed tomography (CT) scan suggested gallbladder carcinoma, prompting radical surgery. Histological assessment confirmed adenosquamous carcinoma of the gallbladder. Although resection margins were negative (R0), peritumoral lymph node metastases were identified. The patient subsequently received adjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine, as recommended by a multidisciplinary tumor board (MDT). Six-month follow-up imaging showed no evidence of metastasis or recurrence.
