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

Less than 5% of all localizations of echinococcosis are renal hydatid cysts, making them uncommon manifestations. It is exceptional when there is a contained rupture in the perirenal space. We report the case of a 47-year-old woman with chronic left flank pain, who has a rural exposure to dogs, and has imaging findings of a multiloculated renal cystic lesion that appears to have ruptured into the perirenal space. This case illustrates the importance of cross-sectional imaging and the diagnostic difficulty of atypical renal echinococcosis. CT is essential for identifying rupture, and hydatid disease should be taken into account when making a differential diagnosis of complex renal cystic masses in endemic areas.
