[Diagnosis and differential diagnosis of benign liver tumors and tumor-like lesions].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Benign liver tumors and tumor-like lesions cover a broad spectrum of differential diagnoses, varying from dysontogenetic cysts to pseudolesions. Focal nodular hyperplasia, adenoma and regenerating nodules play a major role in clinical practice. Based on imaging findings, these lesions can be classified as cystic or solid, solitary or multiple, and hyper- or hypovascular. Haemangioma, FNH, steroid-associated adenoma, cystadenoma and echinococcus cysts can be reliably diagnosed using imaging techniques. The same is true for pseudolesions, which are found in particular on dynamic computed tomography. Other entities such as adenoma in cirrhotic livers, angiomyolipoma, regenerating nodules or Echinococcus alveolaris cannot be safely diagnosed by imaging and require biopsy. Morphological and functional characteristics of the most common lesions in the different imaging modalities will be discussed. Where possible, a diagnostic strategy will be presented.
