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

A previously healthy 29-year-old man presented with abdominal pain and was found to have a liver mass with periductal infiltration and a stricture of the common bile duct, concerning for cholangiocarcinoma. Hepatic function panel disclosed alanine transaminase 293 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase 122 U/L, γ-glutamyl transferase 2019 U/L, normal total bilirubin, carcinoembryonic antigen, and carbohydrate antigen 19-9. Biopsy established the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, with no underlying hepatic disease. He was started on polatuzumab-rituximab-cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-prednisone chemotherapy and achieved complete tumor response. This case highlights the importance of a thorough evaluation of liver tumors and the critical role of tissue diagnosis.
