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

Giant primary hydatid cysts of the sigmoid mesocolon are exceptionally rare, and their exact site of origin may be difficult to establish before surgery. We report a 51-year-old woman with an 8-year history of progressive abdominal distension and vague abdominal discomfort. CT showed a multilocular cystic lesion of size 30 × 22 × 28 cm extending from the pelvis to the upper abdomen, with internal septations and multiple daughter cysts.
