Hydatidosis in three different organs: a case report.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Introduction: Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a parasitic disease caused by the larval stage of Case Presentation: We present a 26-year-old female with a 1.5-year history of recurrent left-sided chest pain, anorexia, and dry cough. Imaging revealed cystic lesions in the liver, lungs, and left ventricular wall of the heart. The patient underwent a multidisciplinary surgical intervention to excise the cysts, followed by postoperative albendazole therapy. Despite the mass effect on the heart, the patient's cardiac function remained preserved with an ejection fraction of 60%. Discussion: This case underscores the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosing CE with multi-organ involvement. While medical therapy with albendazole is effective for managing uncomplicated CE, surgical excision is necessary for complex cases with risks of rupture or embolization. Multidisciplinary care is critical in achieving optimal outcomes in such rare and challenging presentations. Conclusion: This report highlights a rare case of CE involving the liver, lungs, and heart. It emphasizes the importance of accurate imaging, multidisciplinary surgical intervention, and postoperative medical therapy in managing this complex condition and achieving successful outcomes.
