Inferior Vena Cava Syndrome due to Giant Hepatic Cyst After Blunt Trauma.

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.
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 78-year-old woman presented with sudden-onset lower extremity edema, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite that developed the day after she fell off her bicycle. Computed tomography showed a simple hepatic cyst, 17 cm in diameter, compressing the inferior vena cava (IVC). Her symptoms resolved following laparoscopic deroofing. Notably, the cyst had remained stable at 12 cm 2 and 4 years prior, without any evidence of IVC compression. Although many guidelines for asymptomatic simple hepatic cysts published to date do not recommend treatment or follow-up regardless of size, our experience suggests the importance of monitoring simple hepatic cysts larger than 12 cm.
