Fascioliasis simulating an intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma-Case report with imaging and pathology correlation.
Article in Hepatobiliary surgery and nutrition, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Human fascioliasis is a rare zoonosis in Chile. Clinically it presents with a highly polymorphous group of symptoms that evolve in two periods. The first, acute or a result of hepatic invasion, lasts 2 weeks to 4 months and is characterized essentially by pain in the right hypochondrium and/or epigastrium, continuous fever and painful hepatomegaly. This clinical picture, associated with eosinophilia and a history of raw watercress consumption, corresponds to the classic presentation of the disease in its initial stage. We report the case of a 57-year-old female patient with no risk factors for and no clinical signs of fascioliasis, with a lesion in the right hepatic lobe compatible with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, studied with computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET-CT). With the clinical suspicion of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a regulated right hepatectomy was performed, the pathological study of which revealed cholangitis and granulomatous pericholangitis resulting from trematode eggs, compatible with Fasciola hepatica.
