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

Our paper reports an unusual case of a large gastric duplication cyst (GDC) and a concurrent hepatic cyst in a 50-year-old woman, who presented with severe epigastric pain, weight loss and early satiety. Multimodality imaging was performed before surgery. Laparoscopic resection was favoured but was converted to open due to extensive adhesions. The cyst was completely excised. Post-operative histopathological findings confirmed GDC with no atypia/ malignancy. Our case sheds light on the diagnostic, surgical and post-operative challenges, providing a learning opportunity into this rare entity. Finally, a comprehensive literature review also highlighted the various pathologies that GDC can often mimic.
