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

Lymphatic ascites developed in a woman in her fifties after she underwent total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and lymph node dissection for endometrial carcinoma. Approximately 500-1,000 mL of opalescent fluid was drained daily. Initially, dietary fat restrictions failed to reduce ascites. Two lipiodol lymphangiographies identified leaks from the iliac lymphatic vessels but were only partially successful at occluding these leaks. Octreotide injection and clamping of the drainage tube were attempted without success. On postoperative day 68, a mixture of lipiodol and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate was injected to embolize the leakage point, significantly reducing symptoms. The patient was discharged on day 76, and follow-up computed tomography two months later showed complete resolution of ascites. One year after surgery, the patient remained symptom-free.
