Hepatocellular adenoma with severe fatty change in a male Spontaneously Diabetic Torii rat.

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
The Spontaneously Diabetic Torii (SDT) rat is a rat model of nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus, and hepatocellular adenomas have not been reported in this model. We report a hepatocellular adenoma with severe fatty change in a male 42-week-old SDT rat fed a high-fat diet. At necropsy, the animal had a whitish nodular mass of approximately 2 cm in diameter in the right medial lobe. Histologically, the mass was well demarcated from the surrounding tissues, slightly compressing the adjacent hepatic parenchyma and widely compartmented by fibrous connective tissues. The mass consisted of vacuolated tumor cells resembling hepatocytes with a solid and occasionally trabecular growth pattern. Abundant neutral lipids, which were positive for fat with Oil Red O stain and which ultrastructurally had moderately dense material, were contained within the vacuoles of the tumor cells. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells showed an increase in immunoreactivity or number for Cytokeratin 8/18 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen but were negative for mesenchymal markers. From these findings, the mass could be distinguished from hepatocellular hyperplasia and was diagnosed as hepatocellular adenoma. In rats, hepatocellular adenoma accompanied by severe fatty change is rare, and this is the first report of a hepatocellular tumor with severe fatty change in a SDT rat.
