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

Chronic expanding haematoma is defined as a haematoma that gradually increases in size for ≥1 month. It is mostly related to trauma or surgery and can develop at any location in the body. Herein, we describe a case of a chronic expanding haematoma in the left kidney in a patient with a history of long-term hydronephrosis. The patient was a man in his 70 s who had undergone surgery for seminoma with lymph node metastasis 40 years prior. Following the procedure, he had been in an extended state of hydronephrosis. Computed tomography performed during the follow-up period revealed nodules in his persistently dilated left renal pelvis. A left nephrectomy was performed because the possibility of another malignancy could not be ruled out. Pathological examination revealed that the mass was a haematoma that had originated from the left kidney. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first clinical report in the literature of chronic expanding haematoma in the kidney.
