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

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (iCCAs) are histologically subdivided into small duct-type (SD-iCCA) and large duct-type (LD-iCCA). LD-iCCA versus SD-iCCA may differ in the molecular/genetic profiles and oncogenesis, including precursor lesions. While several precursors, such as high-grade biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN) and intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB), have been proposed for LD-iCCA, the potential SD-iCCA precursors remain to be identified. Amid growing interests in the precursors of SD-iCCA, benign "biliary lesions/neoplasms developing in the hepatic parenchyma (BLNP)" such as von Meyenburg complexes (VMCs), bile duct adenomas (BDAs), and biliary adenofibroma (BAF), have been noted to determine whether they have the potential for precursor of SD-iCCA. Herein, these BLNPs were reviewed. BLNP can be classified into three categories. First, traditional VMC and BDA in normal livers which lack atypical features are categorized as "traditional BLNP". Second, a constellation of several lesions such as VMC and BDA detectable in the background livers of SD-iCCA and in chronic liver disease (unusual VMC and BDA), VMC with dysplastic features, BDA located in the deep hepatic parenchyma, multiple BDA, BDA presenting the
