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

We report a case of gallbladder adenosquamous carcinoma with characteristic imaging findings. A 78-year-old man was suspected of having gangrenous cholecystitis and liver abscess based on abdominal ultrasonography performed at another hospital. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a 10-cm hepatic mass contiguous with the gallbladder, with marked internal necrosis and persistent peripheral enhancement. These imaging findings suggested gallbladder adenosquamous or squamous cell carcinoma with hepatic invasion, and needle biopsy revealed both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma components, supporting the diagnosis. This case highlights the importance of recognizing marked internal necrosis and aggressive infiltrative growth on imaging in gallbladder adenosquamous carcinoma presenting with imaging features mimicking gangrenous cholecystitis and liver abscess.
